I have just installed OpenServer 5.0.6 on a brand new HP NetServer E-800. This is a standard "off the shelf" server, (No RAID) one disk, one floppy, one DAT tape drive. I added a Digi Xem serial IO controller, PCI slot 2. Because the SCSI controller is Symbios, I had to add the SLHA driver via BTLD. Load was successful. Server was up and running for 2 days, I made several modifications, relinked the kernel 2 or 3 times, and installed my application. Then....
Intermittently I get this message at boot time, after everything is posted right after tape drive is posted.
WARNING: hd: no root disk controller was found
hd: a Boot-Time loadable device driver may be required
H iinit
PANIC: srmountfun - Error 19 mounting rootdev (1/42)
Error 19 opening dumpdev (1/41)
dump not completed
The machine then halts with "Safe to power off....." message.
I have attempted to reinstall the BTLD by entering the string at the boot prompt
restart link=slha Sdisk=shla(0,0,0,0) Srom=wd(1,0,0,0) scsi.noscan
The system responds "restart not found"
Any clues would be appreciated...
Thanks
