Newbie: Asking for help on finding drivers for Redhat 5.1

Post by Thierrry M. Vo » Tue, 13 Oct 1998 04:00:00



Hi,

I'm trying to install a Compaq Deskpro 4000 6266MMX with Redhat 5.1 and I
can't find any drivers for my soundcard (ESS1869) and a Compaq Netflex
Embedded 10/100 TX card.

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks in advance,

Thierry M. Vos

Probably.  You would most likely find such people on the mailing list


with "subscribe" in the subject.

1. RedHat 5.1 + HDD>1024 + Newbie = Help!

Newbie is an understatement.

Anyway, I have a Western Digital Caviar 8.4GB hard drive and Red Hat 5.1.
I tried appending "hda=1027,255,63" in lilo.conf and even did the "lilo"
command, but I still get:

Not found any [active partition] in HDD
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER.

This is a brand new disk, brand new Red Had 5.1 and I did everything it
said to do. The disk parameters I got from the setup screen after autoprobe.

I even created small partitions, as outlined in the Red Hat book. i'm only
using about 2GB, so I am definately NOT straddling cylinder 1023.

Luckily I created a boot diskette so I can make fixes.

Can anyone help?
