Test bare metal restore problem!

Post Test bare metal restore problem! 
The CDROM created by bacula-rescue-2.0.0 is unable to
see the drives on a server running FC4. It is a Dell
PowerEdge 2400 with the MegaRAID card. I was under
the impression that the CDROM would recognize all raid
setup/cards if it was made with them. Was I way off?
The manual says nothing of the kind that I do admit.
Any ideas?

TIA,

ZK

I also have the same experience.
I ran 'make all' from /etc/bacula/rescue/linux/cdrom.

I'm using bacula-client-2.0.3-1.fc4.rpm. I also tried the 2.0.2 version before.

I'm able to boot with the CD but I don't see any devices and also the
bacula-fd.conf file on the CD is not right (it is a standard file).

I also tried the bacula-rescue tar file.
cd <bacula-rescue>
./configure \
--with-bacula=<bacula-source-directory>
cd linux/cdrom
su
(enter root password)
make all

For this I get the error: cannot find input file knoppix/cdrom/Makefile.in

Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi all,

I'm having the same problem.
I'm running The version 2.0.3 and 2.0.2 from the rpm.
I used "make all" from the /etc/bacula/rescue/linux/cdrom
directory.
It creates a bare metal CD.
I don't have access to any devices while booting from this CD.
Also the bacula-fd.conf file is just a standard one.

Help is welcome.

Is there a solution yet?

You must explicitly mount your disks. The Rescue chapter explains that (at
least briefly).

I don't have raid here, so I cannot answer your question other to say that a
user submitted code that should allow raid disks to be properly setup.

Due to the complexities of writing a Rescue system, I have essentially left
any problems other than those occurring on SuSE 10.2 as an exercise for the
user -- sorry.
