Installing driver updates

If hardware support errors occur during installation, the Driver Update Disk must be loaded when the installer loads:

  1. Find the DUD for your controller version here — https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/
  2. Download the DUD ISO and mount it on the server.
  3. Add inst.dd to the boot line of the VEOS installer to force scanning of additional drivers.
  4. Go through the driver connection procedure.
  5. When the driver is loaded, continue with the normal installation process.
