For that you'll need to edit /etc/modules.conf and change the megaraid2 entry to megaraid_mbox. Also, make sure you have the latest version of mkinitrd (to recognize the .ko module extension).
Good luck,
Dennis

Subject: Re: Raid1 on Dell Poweredge with Perc4e/Di Raid Controller runnin gDebian Sarge (3.1)
Hello Ju,
thanks for your help. I am a total newbie but I managed to compile a new
kernel with your patch:
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-1
Then I did:
server:/boot # mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-1 2.6.8-1
Fatal: Module megaraid2 not found.
Warning: This failure MAY indicate that your kernel will not boot!
but it can also be triggered by needed modules being compiled into the kernel.
Does this mean, that you patch is not working or did I make a mistake?
Best regards,
Oliver

Hello Denis,
this is what I just did
cd /usr/src/kernel-image-2.6.8
patch -l < ./megaraid-v2.20.4.6/2.6.8-24.patch
cd /boot
cp config-2.6.8-24.14-default /usr/src/linux/.config
cd /usr/src/linux
make oldconfig
make
make modules_install
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8
cp System.map /usr/src/linux/System.map /boot/System.map-2.6.8
[Edited /boot/grub/menu.lst]
[Added the line megaraid_mbox to /etc/modules.conf Note: there war no entry
megaraid2 or similar in this file]
server:/boot # mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-1 2.6.8-1
Fatal:
Fatal: Module megaraid2 not found.
Warning: This failure MAY indicate that your kernel will not boot!
but it can also be triggered by needed modules being compiled into the
kernel.
Any ideas? Please help! Thanks!
Regards,
Oliver

* Raid1 on Dell Poweredge with Perc4e/Di Raid Controller running Debian Sarge (3.1)

Hello,
I would like to use Raid1 on the Dell Poweredge with Perc4e/Di Raid Controller
and two 2 73 GB drives running Debian Sarge (3.1).
At http://linux.dell.com/storage.shtml I read that the Powerege 2850 Perc4e/Di
requires megaraid2 driver 2.00.3 or higher on 2.4.x kernel. On 2.6.x kernels
(x < 9) there is no driver for these adapters. On 2.6.x (x >= 9) use the
'megaraid_mbox' and 'megaraid_mm' drivers.
Problem: The Debian Installers offers only to install:
- 2.4.x (which seems to be okay for the raid) OR
- 2.6.8 (which would not allow the use of the Raid)
Solution:
Is there a megaraid driver for the 2.6.8 kernel? If so, where?
If not, should I use 2.4.x kernel or try to install a 2.6.9 kernel on Debian
Sarge?
