At the moment, i still try to get the patches into the main 2.6 kernel, but it would help me very much, if you could give it a try. All patches you need, could be downloaded from http://i2o.shadowconnect.com/. Please note, that because the I2O subsystem does not depend on SCSI, your devices will be called /dev/i2o/hda, /dev/i2o/hdb, ... A short description and FAQ section is also on the site. And if you still have problems, i would be glad, if you could contact me. I'll try my best to help you. Even it works, there is still one point (expect getting the patches into the kernel) on the ToDo list: - Add Adaptec's specific 64-bit SG support A complete list of things to be done (not kernel related) is on the site too. If you have further suggestions/comments please feel free to contact me. Thank you very much, for giving it a try.
