SuSE Linux: Version 7.2
This article refers to an older version of SuSE Linux. Therefore some of the informations given in this article may be outdated or the article may contain stale links.

Symptom:

You try to install your copy of SuSE Linux 7.2 on a system equipped with an Adaptec 1542 SCSI controller. On loading of the module an error message is issued ("an error occured").

Cause:

Unfortunately a module needed by the aha1542-module is missing on the boot disks and the installation system.

Solution:

There is a new bootdisk for this purpose.
You find it on our FTP server with the following link:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.2/bootdisk/
Please copy the file bootdisk and create a bootdisk as described in the Reference Manual at chapter 2.4.4 Creating a Boot Disk with UNIX, p. 35, and start the installation with this bootdisk again.
