RE: LSI Logic's Ultra320 320-4X RAID adapter

[Kallol Biswas <kallol@nucleodyne.com>]

The system's PCI bridge is broken,  MEM Mapped IO does not work.

Only we can use IO mapped IO to access PCI devices(inb, outb) those are
behind the bridge.

I am looking for a LSI mega raid adapter (SCSI, SATA or SAS) that
supports IO mapped IO and has a  linux driver for it.
