We are constrained to use Red Hat AS 2.1, with 2.4.9-e.24. The driver included with that is 1.3.4. This seems to not work that well. Under I/O with many drives, the processes go into disk wait, and never return. No console messages or anything. (The machine is still up and running though). I've been testing with 2.0.5 from Justin, and that seems to work well. However, I noticed that only 2.0.2 is listed on Adaptec's web page. All things being equal, what should we go with? 2.0.5? 2.0.2? or something else? Thanks, Tom
