I currently try to set up a server with an Adaptec 2810SA RAID controller.
While testing the Adaptec command line utility aacraid (actually the
command "controller list") with a vanilla 2.6.12-rc2 kernel I got the
following kernel oops - maybe someone is interested, maybe someone as
some help for me:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000002c

This is a can't happen, as aac_cfg_open should have reported an (-ENODEV) error when it found no matching controller device ...

I was able to reproduce this on my machine.  What I found was that if I
had some aacX devices in /dev that didn't exist that I got this fault.
You may try, as a work around for now, to delete any aac devices in /dev
that don't really exist and see it that helps.
