Re: Question: Installing Redhat 6.1 on a Toshiba (Steve Thomas)

Updated info. I prepared a new drivers disk with the gdth-drivers-disk.img from Redhat. When the system asks for a drivers disk,I insert this one. It takes it just fine, but I still run into a dead end. I can't get past the point where it says that I have no hard disk.

Ideas anyone?

I think this is more of a Red Hat problem than a PCMCIA problem...

I checked their bug tracker, and found a similar report, and Red Hat
says that you should just hit "cancel" when asked for a driver disk.
They're asking for a driver disk for the drive you're installing to,
not the PCMCIA CD-ROM.  And you don't need a driver disk for your hard
drive.

Can you try that, and post your results?  I think the gdth-driver-disk
is definitely not something you should be using.
