Adrian, I've not played with a HP with megaraid but I can point you to a Dell/Redhat specific site that may get you started http://domsch.com/linux/ - see the megaraid section.
The basic problem is that you need the correct driver for your card to get the install to work and the older kernels didn't have great RAID support. You may have better success with a newer kernel (i.e. 2.4.9) but that doesn't help with your install. Your 2.2.19 problem sounds like you have the RAID or SCSI driver(s) compiled as modules and not into the kernel. The bootstrapping obviously works, since the kernel loads. You need to either compile the drivers into the kernel or set up an initrd to provide the modules in an initial ramdisk. Pete -- http://www.elbnet.com ELB Internet Services, Inc.
