i downloaded the new aacraid driver from ibm.
- I need to install it during debian install - but getting an error -
insmod: error inserting
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-486/kernel/drivers/scsi/aacraid/aacraid.ko : -1
File exists
----I have no clue what this means -- here are the instructions :( it
happened when i run insmod below)
---Is there a way i can create a debian dvd with the new driver ???
thanks
This procedure installs the aacraid driver while installing Debian
Server 6.0 32bit
1. Copy "aacraid.ko-PRE_MOD" and "aacraid.ko-POST_MOD" to a floppy
disk or USB flash.
2. Start installing Debian 6.0 Linux by booting from the installation
DVD and select "Graphical Install" option,
Press CTRL+ALT+F2 to switch to console2 while Debian detects the network.
3. Insert your USB key or floopy disk
4. fdisk -l (scan for device, assume if USB drive is assigned to /dev/sda1)
5. Type the following commands:
# mkdir /mnt2 /AACRAID
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt2
# cp -R /mnt2/* /AACRAID
# umount /mnt2
6. *** Please remove the USB flash before the insmod command ***
7. # cp -f /AACRAID/aacraid.ko-PRE_MOD
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-486/kernel/drivers/scsi/aacraid/aacraid.ko
# insmod /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-486/kernel/drivers/scsi/aacraid/aacraid.ko
8. Press CTRL+ALT+F5 to return to installer. Continue the installation as usual.
9. Do not reboot after the installation is complete. Press CTRL+ALT+F2 to
switch to console 2 again.
10. Type the following commands:
# cp -f /AACRAID/aacraid.ko-POST_MOD
/target/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/scsi/aacraid/aacraid.ko
# chroot /target
# /sbin/depmod -a 2.6.32-5-amd64
# update-initramfs -u -v
# exit
11. Press CTRL+ALT+F5 to return to the installer. Reboot to complete
the installation.
