Clay

have you tried booting from the first CD. I think the floppy based
kernel is cut down a little to save space, so it may not have the
required driver on it.

If you can't boot from the CD (like bios won't support it), you'll have
to build you own floppy images with the perc 4e driver in that kernel.
See the hnadbook for how to do this..
