Dear everybody (sorry troy, if you get this twice),
This is another error report on the aic7895 on the intel dx440lx.
I have now tried with Alan Cox's 35pre1 patch applied to the clean 2.0.34
source tree. I get slightly changed error messages.
The core of the problem seems to be that my scsi-controller gets assigned
irq 0 and memory 0x0.
To recapitulate:
I have a PII333 dual on a intel dx440lx motherboard. I have redhat 4.2
installed on ide-disks. So that part is OK.
I have (for the test case only) atached a single scsi toshiba cd-rom xm
6201b on channel a, which is terminated by jumper setting. It is reported
to have id 1. The cabling looks like
daughter card --------- motherboard ----------- cd-rom
I have enabled termination of the motherboard part.
the scsi bios is reportedly:
adaptec aic7895 scsi bios 1.32S2 - idk4
New kernel messages I have written down (by hand):
+++++++++++++++++++++++

(scsi0) Wide Channel A, SCSI ID=7, unknown interrupt 32/255 SCBs

Then it were hanging.
Clearly I want it to use IRQ 11 and memory F400h and F800h, not the ones
reported. How do I do that?
Have a nice day.
