Installing RHEL on WS460c G6 and Gen8 wth HP RGS.
Please use RedHat installation documentation for detailed instructions and configuration for RHEL 5 and 6.
This section only highlights certain steps that may be required for WS460c for successful installation.
Required Installation steps for RHEL
For installation and configuration the systems should be in
“Setup” mode (Refer to configuration section preceding
this entitled “Configuring Hardware Accelerated Graphics
on WS460c Blade Workstation)
For production use the systems should be switched to
“USER Mode”
During installation, to avoid potential panic on NOVEAU
drivers on RHEL 6 during first part of install, select the
following install option:
“Install system with basic video drivers” (See Figure 6.0) or
the install may hang
Suggested Post-Installation configuration steps on WS460c
In order to accommodate the fact that the WS460c has two primary modes the server can run in: One being
“Setup” mode where the ATI (G6) or Matrox (Gen8) are the primary card, the other being “User” mode where the
system only sees the NVIDIA card, it is necessary in most cases to create two xorg.conf configurations that can
dynamically switch between X11 configurations for the two modes. The following process explains one way to
do this.
1. Download latest supported and testing WS460c NVIDIA driver for HP driver web site and put into the /tmp
directory.
2. Download HP RGS Linux install pack and put into the /tmp directory.
3. With system in “Setup” mode and RHEL fully installed, open command prompt.
4. Run “lspci |grep VGA” and locate the PCI Address for the embedded and add in graphics cards.
NOTE: WS460c G6 has an embedded ATI controller and WS460c gen8 has an embedded Matrox graphics card.
NOTE: when running lspci the output for PCI device ID is in HEX, and in the xorg.conf file it is in DEC. For
example, if in lspci the ID reads as 21, in the xorg.conf you need to use 33.
a. If running a G6 systems, locate and document the PCI address of the ATI card, in our example it is
01:03.0:
01:03.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02)
b. If running a Gen8 systems, locate and document the PCI address of the MATROX card, in our
example it is 01:00.1:
01:00.1 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G200EH
c. On both G6 and Gen8 locate and document the PCI address of the NVIDIA card, in our example it is
21:00:0:
21:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device
