It's an interview question for Linux System Administrator,
You want to install RHEL 5 operating system on server machine. Unfortunately RHEL 5 doesn't detect your hard disk. But you need to install it on that hard disk. How will you do ? You have module disk ( Driver CD/DVD) for that hard disk and RHEL 5 DVD.
I felt this is too hard and searched in several places, But actually it's simple thing, ( I didn't try practically because i don't have that much advance or old hard disk). Ok let us see those very simple steps.
