by Hi,
after some effort I managed to install RedHat 3.0.3 + all errata and
the
Linux 2.0 kernel on a HP XU 6/200 Dual Pentium Pro 200 MHz. I had to
load
the system on an IDE disk using a XU 5/90 because the 1.3.57 boot disks
did not manage to correctly initialize the HP XU 6 network adapter (for
an NFS load). After preparing the disk on the XU 5 the XU 6 booted
like a charm (in SMP mode!).... So far so good. However, I seem to
have problems accessing the SCSI devices. Whenever I try to mount a
SCSI disk or CD-ROM I get:
mount: wrong fs type or bad superblock on /dev/sda1
Also for a CDROM containing RedHat Motif which works fine on the XU 5.
The dmesg of the XU 6 is:
nsole: colour VGA+ 80x25, 1 virtual console (max 63)

Any help on this problem appreciated.
