    Hello!

It seems to me that card initialization is broken in new driver
aacraid-1.1.5.2391.
The problem arises on Linux kernels 2.4.x, if the driver is compiled
into the kernel.

In that case kernel doesn't find root device to mount, if it locates on
a disk, connected to adaptec scsi controller.
(Card finds the controller, but finds out no devices on it.)

In the case the driver is compiled as a module, it works fine (at the
first glance).

Please, could you find out what the problem is?

P.S. the previous driver i use (1.1.4) worked fine compiled into the kernel.
