Hi all,

I am trying to boot Xen on a Adaptec 7892 SCSI controller and it isn't even 
going into the check routines for the disk!  (Ie, no disks are found and I 
can't boot into Xen...)...  It works fine on FC3 and the drivers are 
compiled into the kernel (I tried both new and old...).  The machine is an 
IBM eSeries 330.

Anyone else have it running on a 7892?

Thanks,
David

Are you using the -xen kernel? I doubt the -xen0 kernel has a driver
compiled in for that card.

Are you actually seeing the startup messages for the driver?

[The -xen kernel has a wide variety of modules, but you'll need to build
an initrd]

I compiled support directly into the kernel for the AIC7xxx driver, and 
it supposedly has support for the 7892.  No I'm not seeing start-up 
messages, just that the "SCSI subsystem initialized".

I'd double check that its actually in there...
You might want to add a printk(KERN_ALERT to the start of the driver
init function.
