Step 4 Configure System to Automatically Load the Driver

To avoid typing in “insmod hptiop_00.o” each time the operating system is booted,

the system must be instructed to automatically load the module during bootup. To

install the module, type in the following commands (first change to the directory

where the proper hptiop_00.ko file is located):

1. Edit the file “/etc/sysconfig/kernel”, and add the hptiop_00 module to the

line “INITRD_MODULES=…”

Example:

INITRD_MODULES=”reiserfs hptiop_00”

2. Run the “depmod” command to update the module configuration:

# depmod

3. Next, run the “mkinitrd” command to update the initrd file:

# mkinitrd

4. If you are using the lilo boot loader, run lilo again:

# lilo

Step 5 Configure System to Mount Volumes during Startup

The system can be instructed to automatically mount the array(s) during startup by

modifying the file”/etc/fstab”.

For example, add the following line to tell the system to mount /dev/sda1 to location /

mnt/raid after startup:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/raid ext2 defaults 0 0

4 - Updating the Driver

To update the driver, simply reinstall the driver following the steps in previous

section, “ Install RocketRAID driver on an Existing System “.

Note: If the driver is loaded in initrd (when system is installed onto a disk or array

attached to the RocketRAID host adapter), you need to run the mkinitrd to command
