Hello, Initially I had difficulty in booting linux on ps/2 server -9595 for installation. I overcame that problem by replacing the installation boot image with a 2.4.0 custom build image . I am booting from the floppy disk since the system (old system) does not support booting from the cd rom. Booting was successful. The problem is that after booting up the cd drive is not been recognized for installation .Currently os/2 is installed in the server and it displays CD-ROM device as IBM CD-ROM II ,Enhanced CD-ROM II .I had compiled the kernel with SCSI support . I used redhat 7 for installation . Have any one faced the similar difficulty .Can anyone help me to resolve the problem Thanks & Regards Shiju - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
