Hi,
When trying to compile module for sym53c416 I received an error
'address not in structure'. I traced this to - asm-i386/scatterlist.h.
It is missing - char * address - at the beginning of the structure. I
copied scatterlist.h from 2.4.18 and it compiled fine.
Hope this helps,
Don Tonks

Please don't call this a solution. The char * address item is no longer
valid, so adding it back to the header won't make the driver work, it just
makes it compile and then write garbage all over your disks the first time
you try to use it.
