Hello guys,

Configuring a new box based on ASUS CUR-DLS dual Pentium III, 1GB RAM and 
using
the new LSI SYM53C896 SCSI interface.

Question:  How to get sym53c8xx and eepro100 activated at start-up 
procedure ?

Thanks for your help.
e_soriano@dapsys.com

Description:

Version used is Linux 2.2.17 dowloaded from kernel.org with Redhat 6.1 
(2.2.12-20)

Step 1
When configuring this system from scratch using the RedHat 6.1 CD-ROM the 
system
reconize both the integrated interfaces LSI as well as the Intel 82559 
Ethernet controller.

Fine.

Problem is that Linux version has no updated drivers for the high speed 
LSI controller (160 Mbs)

So I downloaded 2.2.17 from kernel.org and sy1.6b-2.2.17.tar.gz from 
ftp.lsil.com.HostAdapterDrivers/linux/c8xx-driver

Compiled and intalled.

conf.modules:
depfile=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep
alias scsi_hostadapter BusLogic
alias scsi_hostadapter1 sym53c8xx
alias scsi_hostadapter2 sym53c8xx
alias eth0 eepro100

lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
default=linux
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.17smp
        label=linux
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.17smp.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/sda1
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-20smp
        label=linux-sv
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12-20smp.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/sda1
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-20
        label=linux-up
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12-20.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/sda1


Problem: both controllers LSI and Intel are not recognized during 
startup.

So, once the system started, I need to enter:

easiest way I can think of is to compile them into the kernel, not as
modules. Thus as soon as the kernel boots, they are active in memory.
