Linux Red Hat 7 ATA Driver Settings

By default, Linux Red Hat 7.1 OS uses only the ATA driver in PIO mode for the

server blades ATA controller. Use the following change to set the driver to use

DMA and higher speeds (66 MHz/100 MHz):

1. Add ide0=ata66 to the LILO append line described in step 2 in Linux

2. Run /sbin/lilo to make the changes take effect.

they are not needed on HP ProLiant BL e-Class server blades:

Console redirection is supported using many terminal emulation programs. Any

terminal emulation program can be used with BIOS Serial Console and with OS
