... has anyone managed this???
Running suse 9.1 64 bit on Opteron based server and
am attempting to add two mirrored sata discs.
Have downloaded the Highpoint drivers but am having
difficulty with the install.
The drivers come down as .img files and the
documentation suggests I unpack them with dd to make a driver diskette. On
doing so however, the dd fails after 1840 of the 1880 input records - I
think due to the floppy disc being full (but I am not sure).
I've tried to dd to a hard disc directory
structure using a similar command, (dd if= ...., of= .....) but this has
failed to work correctly and has created a
binary file rather than one with a directory structure.
Can someone give me a clue how to me move forward -
either how to get dd to span diskettes or how to get dd to unpack the .img file
in a useful form.
I've tried googling, tried to contact highpoint
etc. to no avail.
Thanks
David
