[RULE] Install RULE on SCSI hard disk

[Michael L'Heureux]

Hello,

I've been trying for the past while to install RULE on an old Compaq 
Prosignia 500 server (150MHz, 128MB) that I have.  Other distros are 
able to install w/ a little tweaking, but with RULE I've been having a 
really hard time having it detect my SCSI hard drive.  The machine has 
on-board SCSI with a Promise Ultra ATA 100 card with an ATA drive 
attached (I don't expect to be able to detect this until after RULE is 
installed, since I need the drivers for the card).  I am able to get it 
to detect my CD ROM drive & mount the RULE CD to /mnt/cdrom & link 
/dev/scd0 to /dev/cdrom by loading the scsi_mod.o, sr_mod.o & 
ncr53c8xx.o modules.  I can browse the files on the CD, when I switch 
back to my first session to run the install, it tells me that it wasn't 
able to locate the CD ROM & offers to let me select it (cdrom).  Then 
when I get to the point where it asks me which device I would like to 
install RULE on, I have no options to choose from.  What should I do?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
