System that Boots from a Different Device
1 Log in as root.
2 Edit /etc/sysconfig/kernel and make sure the file contains the
following line:
INITRD_MODULES="reiserfs 3w-9xxx"
Note: Other modules may be listed before or after 3w-
9xxx, depending on the installation. You may see
entries like reiserfs, ext3 or scsi_mod. If present, leave
them (ensuring there is a space between each module
name), since the system needs them to boot properly.
