Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2004 13:09:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040126120908.GA40438@xs4all.nl> (raw)
I managed to get dpt_i2o working with kernel 2.6.1-rc2.
First of it all, it's still risky to do it. But here is how:
get Mark's patch ->
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=107210932819564&w=2
Hack the ./drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c and remove all references to the
access_count member.
The access_count member doesnt exist anymore but is it still included in
the shipped dpt_i2o.c file. I googled some changelogs and it appears to
be removed in a 2.5.x kernel, but correct me if i am wrong.
it's q&d but it works so far ;)
Compile & boot :)
I enabled bigmem (4GB) and didnt encounter any problems yet. I have to
do some benchmarks bonnie/postal to get a high load for a couple of
hours. Just to make sure it doesnt die ;)
