From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Malcolm Beattie Date: Tue, 26 May 1998 14:31:57 +0000 Subject: Ultra5 OK apart from SunSwift SCSI Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: ultralinux@vger.kernel.org Now that my Ultra5 has arrived, I'm preparing to install Linux on half of it. I checked that Eddie's latest test kernel that he sent me boots OK on it (and hence I assume that the next UltraPenguin release will work) and it does. However, it doesn't see the SCSI HBA part of the SunSwift card that's in it. The SunSwift card has a fast-ethernet adaptor (hme) and a SCSI adaptor (don't know what sort). The hme is seen fine (along with the hme that's built into the Ultra5 already) but there's no SCSI detected at all. Is that because of a bug in a driver or because there's no Linux/SPARC driver for whatever the SunSwift uses in the way of SCSI? If it's a question of fixing simple bugs in a driver or else simple porting of an already-written driver then I might be able to summon up the time and inclination to do it. --Malcolm -- Malcolm Beattie Unix Systems Programmer Oxford University Computing Services
