4 Mount the CD-ROM and copy and install the appropriate kernel driver
module for your system.
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt
Copy the kernel driver module:
For openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 32-bit (x86), type:
cp /mnt/packages/drivers/linux/suse/<version>/x86/
3w-sas.
<kernel extension>
/lib/modules/<kernel string>/kernel/drivers/scsi/
3w-sas.ko
For openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 64-bit (x86_64),
type:
cp /mnt/packages/drivers/linux/suse/<version>/x86_64/
3w-sas.ko
/lib/modules/
<kernel string>/kernel/drivers/scsi/
3w-sas.ko
If prompted to overwrite, type y.
5 To load the kernel driver module, type:
modprobe sd_mod
insmod /lib/modules/
<kernel string>/kernel/drivers/scsi/
3w-sas.ko
6Type:
/sbin/depmod -a
7Type:
/sbin/mkinitrd
8 If you are using the GRUB boot loader, you are finished.
If you are using the LILO boot loader, run LILO to update the boot record
on disk by typing the following:
/sbin/lilo
The output should be similar to:
Added linux *
Note: The 64-bit driver is also used for 64-bit Intel Xeon and AMD
Opteron based motherboards.
Note: If the kernel driver module installation fails, confirm that the
correct driver was installed. If a driver is not available for your system,
you will need to compile your own driver. For more information,
