1-Fedora Core 5 Linux installation Overview

This section provides instructions describing how to install and utilize the

RocketRAID 2210 Adapter on a Fedora Core 3 Linux system.

2 - Installing Fedora Core 5 on the RocketRAID 2210 Host Adapter

Note: If the OS is running kernel that differs from the one supported by the

precompiled driver, the precompiled drivers cannot be used. A driver can be built for

this kernel using the OpenSource package for the RocketRAID 2210 controller. This

package is available from our website, and is posted on the BIOS/Driver page for the

RocketRAID 2210.

To install Fedora Linux onto hard disks or RAID arrays attached to RocketRAID 2210

controller, follow the steps outlined below:

Step 1 Prepare the Driver Diskette

The driver is contained in a floppy diskette image file.

On a DOS or Windows system, a Fedora driver diskette can be generated using

rawrite.exe. This utility is included on the Fedora Linux CD (under /dosutils). Run

rawrite using a command prompt window, and follow the directions it provides.

On a Linux system, use the “dd” command to generate a boot diskette. Insert a

floppy disk into the floppy drive and type the following command:

# dd if=fc3-i386.img of=/dev/fd0

Note: The driver disk image file depends on your core version and hardware.

Step 2 Install Fedora Linux
