should automatically load the HPT37x2 driver.

2. If you use a SCSI adapter to boot the system, you cannot do as above since this may

conflict with other SCSI devices. However, you can add the driver to the existing

RAM disk image. First check which image file you are using by checking the

" initrd=" line in file /etc/lilo.conf, then use the following commands (we assume the

file is /boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img. For Redhat 7.2 system, just need to substitute

" initrd-2.4.2-2.img" with " initrd-2.4.7-10.img" to get the default RAM disk file

name):

# gzip – dc /boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img > /tmp/initrd.ext2

# mkdir /mnt/initrd

# mount – o loop /tmp/initrd.ext2 /mnt/initrd

# cp hpt37x2.o /mnt/initrd/lib/ (specify the correct location of hpt37x2.o here)

Now, add a line " insmod /lib/hpt37x2.o" to the file /mnt/initrd/linuxrc, just

below the line of insmoding SCSI adapter' s kernel module. Example of linuxrc:

... ...

echo "Loading scsi_mod module"

insmod /lib/scsi_mod.o

echo "Loading sd_mod module"

insmod /lib/sd_mod.o

echo "Loading aic7xxx module"

insmod /lib/aic7xxx.o

insmod /lib/hpt37x2.o

echo "Loading jbd module"

... ...

# umount /mnt/initrd

# gzip – c /tmp/initrd.ext2 > /boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img

If you are using Lilo to boot your system, you also need to run lilo:

# lilo

Then reboot your system and the driver will be loaded.

Step 5 Configure System to Mount Volumes when Startup

Now you can inform the system to automatically mount the array by modifying the file

/etc/fstab. E.g. You can add the following line to tell the system to mount /dev/sda1 to

location /mnt/raid after startup:

/dev/sda1

/mnt/raid
