Installation Tips
1.
Since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0 EM64T cannot recognize the onboard
SATA RAID, you need to make a driver diskette before the installation.
The driver disk is not available in EasyBUILD 8.0 build 100 yet. The driver
will be available in GCSD website and next release of EasyBUILD.
2.
Type linux dd when the prompt boot: appears at the start.
3.
Please select the sda as the Driver Disk Source.
