Hi Jack
I've tried the MP4 driver cd as suggested.
When I ask it to load additional (HBA) drivers, the system just hangs.
If I look at the console, the 'WARNING: FDC Unexpected State' message crops up, so I am deducing that it has been looking for the drivers on the NON-EXISTENT Floppy drive.
How can I persuade the install to look for drivers on the CD drive rather than the floppy?
Or is there a way to load the megasas driver via the boot-time loadable modules at the Boot: prompt?
Thanks
Andy
