The card BIOS reports to be 'Symbios v4.0 PIC Rev 2.0, 2.1, (c) LSI Corp, PCI-4.19.00'. It looks like firmware 4.19.00 is the latest from LSI for this hardware (released around 2001). Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this working please? I get a panic on boot since my root disk on this device, and it isn't being recognised during boot (ie, kernel image loads (all static kernel, no modules), and then panics when it tries to get to the root filesystem on /dev/sda3 on the disk on this controller. I have been reading archives of this list and lkml and can't see anything related, but then again, I may have missed something.
