Installation Tips
NOTE. The driver of Integrated SAS SW RAID is required for the SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server 10 EM64T installation. Please install an external USB floppy
drive for applying driver during the OS installation.
1.
Since SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 cannot recognize the integrated
SAS SW RAID, you need to make a driver diskette from the EasyBUILD 7.1
build 600 first before the installation.
2.
Boot the system with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 CD #1.
3.
When you see the boot menu on the screen, select Installation and type
“brokenmodules=ahci” string in the below text tab. Then press F5 and
select YES for the driver loading in the installation. Press Enter to
