Loading drivers at installation
« on: July 06, 2003, 03:30:35 AM »
It would be nice if they implemented the function "accept dd" again in a future version, in 5.12 there was the possibility to add a driver for my Highpoint HPT370 card so I could install directly onto my raid-controller(hardware raid-1).
I think many people out there would like this function back.
Or is there another way to work around this problem, because at this moment I can only run 5.5 on my raid card after upgrading from 5.12.

I have to agree...
As a unix buff, the ability to install additional rpm's, drivers at instal time would greatly enhance sme. Even a menu choice on console to actually "Install RPM" or add drivers before setiing up box...

Kudos for this wish!
