Help:
I am trying to install a Compaq Proliant 370 (2 Pentiums
667 MHz, 512 Mbytes RAM, 2*9.1 Gig SCSIs).
(1) I have deleted the whole configuration, and tried to set
RAID0 (and then RAID1) by using the Compaq CDROM.
(2) I have used the compact rescue and root disks from
potato 2.2r3; but it failed to init the smart drive.
I have tried to follow these following tips without luck.
Is there anything else that I can try?
thanks.

"You must ensure that the driver "cpqarray" is loaded and
that the devices nodes under /dev/ida/ present."

You should know where your array is in terms of basememory adress. On
the proliant I have, it's the EISAslot number. i.e.: 6; basememory
adress=0x6000
What kind of arraycontroller you need to fill in, I don't know. But
this must get you started.
When you install LILO; DON'T install it in MBR! (another compraq
got me on that one). Make the compraq partition bootable
(/dev/ida/c0d0p3) and install LILO on you rootpartition
(/dev/ida/c0d0p1). Then add to LILO the alternative of F10 and
it's location. And add what you did to show the kernel where to
look for the array, to append='here is the array and
onboard you bastard"
