Updating the Driver and Firmware For SuSE high memory systems (2.6 kernels) cp /3w-9xxx.big /lib/modules//kernel/ drivers/scsi/3w-9xxx.ko 5 Run /sbin/depmod -a 6 Make sure the file /lib/modules//modules.dep contains an entry for 3w-9xxx. If not, add it after the 3w-xxxx entry. 7 Complete the upgrade by upgrading the initial ramdisk. (Skip to step 10 if you prefer to use insmod 3w-9xxx.o, instead.) Make sure the file /etc/sysconfig/kernel contains the following line: INITRD_MODULES="3w-9xxx" Note: Other modules may be listed before or after 3w-9xxx depending on the installation. You may see entries likes reiserfs, ext3 or scsi_mod. Leave these entries alone, if present, as the system may need them to boot properly. 8 Run mkinitrd. 9 If you are using lilo, use lilo to update to the boot loader. You should see a printout of kernels that are able to boot on this system after running lilo. 10 Reboot, if booted from the 3ware controller. Otherwise, continue with step 11. The driver is now updated. 11 Stop the current driver module, if loaded: rmmod 3w-9xxx 12 Load the new driver module: modprobe 3w-9xxx If the new driver fails to load properly, confirm that you used correct driver. If your kernel or SuSE version is not supported, you will need to compile your own driver.
