SPLAT on IBM x306m (ICH7 SATA drivers)

[rdover]

We are trying to install SPLAT on an IBM 306m. it says on the Check Point site that this server is not supported or compatible...
However, http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserve...int_compo.html says that IBM provide these servers with Check Point Express. So if they can do it, why can't we?
I'm not sure if R61 is compatible with these servers...

The servers have Intel ICH7 SATA devices which are supported by Check Point. We have a unix guru here at work who tried some stuff on it, but if anyone has heard of it being possible, please speak up!

the server does not have a floppy disk or a place on the mobo for one to be plugged in. we had to use a USB one which it didn't like much. had to copy the files from the floppy to a temp directory and then mount that as the floppy. only half worked though!

Anyone?

Contact CheckPoint support and most probably you will get a special SPLAT iso image with SATA drivers included.

ok thanks. we'll try that.

we got the image, customised r60 HFA03 and it works a treat on the x306m. thanks for your advice.
