Re: QLogicFC problems with 2.4.x?

[Peter Rival <frival@zk3.dec.com>]

This is just to let everyone know that, thanks to Craig Ruff, I now have 
qlogicfc working under 2.4.11 on my ES40 and GS80.  The secret is to set 
CONNECTION_PREFERENCE to P2P_ONLY instead of LOOP_ONLY, and to build it 
in to the kernel instead of as a module.  My problem now is that the 
GS80 oopses when I try to mke2fs the second stripe set on the HSG80.  
This _only_ happens on the second mke2fs, not the first.  Screen dump is 
as follows:

#mke2fs /dev/sde2
....

I've inlined the ksymoops output below.  I still haven't gotten the 
qla2x00 driver working... kinda strange...  I'll also be trying Matthew 
Jacob's driver as soon as I get the chance.  Thanks for all the 
suggestions everyone!
