Hi All,
It is not that my drive (HP 7200 Surestore) is bad. I have
been using
it for more than a year under Mandrake 7.1, recently I
switched to RedHat and this mysterious problem started
occurring. In Mandrake, I used the following sequrnce of
commands to install the modules,
/sbin/modprobe paride
/sbin/modprobe epat
/sbin/modprobe pg
/sbin/modprobe pcd
And it worked like a charm. Now under RH, the last command
generates the following message,
/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o:
init_module: Operation not permitted
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module
parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o:
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o
failed
/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o:
insmod pg failed
I have tried switching the sequence of the last two
commands, with messages in the same line. I feel really
frustated. Could any kind soul please tell me what is wrong.
Output from dmesg follows:
