Subject: aic79xx bug? my stupidity?
Date: Sun, 5 Jan 2003 20:40:54 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200301052040.54974.robertopeon@sportvision.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <610650816.1041607684@aslan.scsiguy.com>

I'm not sure to whom I should be addressing this, but it seems that
Justin Gibbs is one of those people.


I've been trying to get the aic79xx driver working in 2.4.19 without success.
I'll clarify:

I've extracted the source tarfile into the kernel dist directory, config'd the
module to build, built it, installed it, etc.

I've gotten far enough that I can get the kernel to boot with it, and it seems
to see the controller, however, I cannot get it to find the root partition.

I have had success using redhat and the driver diskette.
The hardware is an aic7902, integrated onto a Supermicro X5DA8.


>From what I could find on the archives, it seemed like a patch might be
needed to get a vanilla kernel up&running with the aic79xx driver. Is this
right? If so, where might that patch be?

I have more questions and possibly a bug, but would like to find the proper
people to speak with before burdening the list with tons of data.
