Loading aix7xxx drivers and it hangs...



hi,
how does it just hang? Do you see the HDD light blink continuously with no
result? You may be able to help us out by cycling through the terminals that
the red hat install has (ctl-alt-F1 through ctl-alt-F5). One of these consoles
should show some error messages.
