GinGin64 Refuse to install

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


Sigh, one happy piss off user of Opteron....

Its not bad or anything, but sadly there's no driver
support at all ...

I brought 2 Opteron servers, 1 Barebone (because I
have used parts) and one Brand new (Full Equip)

First one, Bare Bone, have the following :
Dual Opteron 240
Rioworks HDAMA Motherboard (Most ppl use this right?)
2 GB x 256 = 2GB Ram
Adaptec 29160 SCSI Card (PCI66MHz, my old card)
Fujitsu MAM 15K RPM 18GB HDD (Used as well, couple of
months)
Slim CD-Rom 16x
1u Rackmount /w 350 W power supply

This system, works 100% on Redhat 8, didn't try 9, but
I'm 100% sure GinGin64 doesn't work, because ... No
driver for the Adaptec 29160 SCSI card...

Second System, Full Equip:
Dual Opteron 240
Same Rioworks mobo
Same amount of Ram 2GB
WDC Raptor 10K RPM SATA HDD

same thing, GinGin64 doesn't have the Promise SATA
Driver at all, I looked up their web site they only
have drivers for 2.4.18............sigh, the only
thing that work is RH8 again ....... sighhhh

man I mean, come on ..... at least have the drivers
for 29160 ... it's a popular card .......
