To fix this problem, I put the following executable script into  /etc/e-smith/events/local

#!/bin/sh
insmod
mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /home/e-smith/files ...  -o noatime

fix it to match your situation, and you will boot fine.

Hi dlex,

Does Paul's driver activate the RAID functions of the card as well or only provides IDE access to the drives ?

If it also does the RAID part, could you e-mail me a copy ?

Thanks.

...Thanks.


...but now that my test box is now SME 6.0beta3, this driver does not work.

 I figured out how to compile a new driver from source on this box and get a .o file.  I can even insmod the file, but If I try to mout/fdisk /dev/sda my systems will slow right down to an crawl. It won't actually lock up.

Any Ideas as to why access /dev/sd*?
