If you are installing Red Hat Linux 7.1/7.2, you will be asked " Do you have a driver

disk?" . Select " Yes" .

When prompted " Insert your driver disk and press OK to continue" , insert the

driver diskette in the floppy drive and then select "OK".

If you are installing Red Hat Linux 7.1/7.2, please go to step 10 since the system will

load HPT37x driver automatically.

After the "Devices" dialog box appears, select "Add Device" option.

When asked "What kind of device would you like to add?", select "SCSI", and then

select "Ok".

Scroll down to "HPT370/372/372A ATA RAID Controller", and then select "Ok".

The installation process will now display the "HPT370/372/372A ATA RAID

Controller" as been found, select "Done".

press ok to continue" , just press <Enter> to continue.

11) Continue the installation as normal. You can refer to Red Hat Linux installation guide.

Note

The system device mapping order is the same as the order shown in HPT37x BIOS

Setting Utility. If you have no other SCSI adapters installed, the device marked as

" BOOT" or " HDD0" will be /dev/sda, " HDD1" will be /dev/sdb, " HDD2" will be

/dev/sdc, etc. When creating mount points, you must mount /boot on /dev/sda.

12) When asked where to install lilo, you must select Master Boot Record (MBR) to

make your system be able to boot from HPT37x controller. For Redhat 7.2, you may

choose GRUB as system loader.

13) (HPT370/372 only) If you are installing Red Hat Linux 7.1/7.2 onto hard disk(s)

attached to HPT370 or HPT372, when " Installation Complete" dialog appears, an

additional step must be taken to replace the installed kernel with our new kernel,

which has HPT366 IDE support removed. On the driver disk, there is a setup script

"postinstall" which will do this work for you. When the "Installation Complete"

dialog appears, DO NOT press ENTER. Press Alt-F2 to activate the command shell

and type in the following commands:

for Red Hat Linux 7.1

# chroot /mnt/sysimage

# mount /mnt/floppy

# sh /mnt/floppy/postinstall

# umount /mnt/floppy
