Using lpfcdd as the Boot Device

It is possible to use a device, connected to the lpfcdd driver, as the boot device. The only

restriction is you must be booted off an existing SCSI or IDE boot / root device.

1. Prepare the boot image (note the use of --preload to load lpfcdd before other

modules). Type:

/sbin/mkinitrd --preload lpfcdd /boot/new.img < kernelversion>

2. Create a boot floppy. Insert a floppy disk into the drive. Type:

/sbin/mkbootdisk <kernelversion>

mount /mnt/floppy

cp /boot/new.img /mnt/floppy/initrd.img

3. Identify the Fibre Channel device that you wish to use as the boot/root device, /dev/

sdX. Create partitions and make file systems on the Fibre Channel boot drive.

Type:

fdisk /dev/sdX
