Temporarily remove the LSI controller, and install an ide/sata disk. Then install the operating system on that disk. Re-install the LSI controller and mount it as a secondary file system. Repair the /etc file system and then reboot without the ide/sata drive.

what do you mean by removing the LSI and install new hard disk ?
now i prepared new hard disk do that but i need more details about this solution.
if i removed the LSI it means all data on the corrupted hard disk will be removed ??
please advice

The purpose of installing the ide drive is to create a running system.
Once you have created that system, you can then install the LSI controller as a secondary file system, clean it, then shutdown, remove the ide disk and boot from the LSI controller.
Just think of the ide disk the same way you would an emergency boot disk.
