Following it I found the thread: [patch 1/1] Get I2O working with Adaptec's zero channel controllers, (http://groups.google.com/groups?q=2010s+group:mlist.linux.scsi&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=mlist.linux.scsi&selm=linux.scsi.200405290713.i4T7Dxr25622%40mail.osdl.org&rnum=1) where the patch is posted. The thread is really unanswered and the patch is the same from http://i2o.shadowconnect.com where it is called i2o-adaptec-zerochannel-support.patch I already had it applied to my kernel and couldn't make the adapter work. I'll have a look on dpt_i2o... Anyway, my results are that this patch is not working for a Adaptec 2010S card. I'm copying Mr Andrew Morton who first posted the patch so he gets aware of it. (sorry if you get it doubled, I don't know if you are at linux-raid). tks for your attention...
