Hard drive not found with Yellow Dog 3.0

[Barnes, Lee]

Dear all,

	Having a really strange go of it with a pair of Apple Xserve 1u =
computers that are nearly identical outside of being approximately a =
year apart in age.  The older computer gave us a few worries installing =
the MacOS X (10.2.6) but didn't have any problems at all with Yellowdog =
of older and newer versions.  Our new Xserve, on the other hand, handled =
the install of MacOS X (10.2.6) without a hitch, but (anaconda) does not =
detect the hard disk drive for the Yellowdog 3.0 install.  When it is =
going through the boot-up after getting past the boot loader of the CD, =
I see it mention the DVD/CD-RW combo drive as being /dev/hda and then I =
see that it also brings up the Adaptec AIC-7xxx driver and mention that =
it is for IDE devices, but the hard disk drive is not mentioned by =
anaconda... =20

	I read and understand that Hot-swappable devices are not supported in =
this version of Yellowdog, and have made sure that the first partition =
is unformatted/unalotted, while the second one was with Extended MacOS =
(Extended HFS).   When I get past the error saying that there isn't a =
suitable location of the installation, I'm given the option of loading =
drivers that came with Yellowdog 3.0; could it be an issue of needing =
aic-79xx instead of the loaded aic-7xxx driver for this IDE controller?  =
(Going with the assumption that this machine requires the ATA Hard Disk =
Drive to be treated as a SCSI device, much as an USB or Firewire HDD.)=20

	At present, the two drivers which are loaded are: Tigon 3 (gigabit =
ethernet) and Apple GMAC (don't know what this one is about).     =20
