Install The Driver into Ramdisk (SuSE SLES-8)
Follow these instructions to add the driver module into the initial RAM disk image for SuSE
Linux Enterprise Server 8 systems.
1. Build the driver as a module. Refer to the "Build the Driver as a Module" topic in
this manual for instructions.
2. Build the new boot image (initrd) with support for the Emulex driver. Type:
# cd /etc/sysconfig
# vi kernel
3. Edit the line that reads "INITRD_MODULES =" to add the lpfcdd module. For
example,
INITRD_MODULES="mptscsih reiserfs"
Should look like the following:
INITRD_MODULES="mptscsih reiserfs lpfcdd"
4. Save and close the file.
5. Create the new boot image. Type:
# /sbin/mkinitrd -i /boot/initrd-<kernversion> -k /boot/vmlinuz-<kernversion>
Where kernversion is the kernel version number being returned by the uname -r
command.
6. Reboot the system.
