I2O and Promise SuperTrak SX6000 Kernel Oops

I2O and Promise SuperTrak SX6000 Kernel Oops

[Sebastian Zimmermann]

Thanks to everyone that helped us with i2o and the Promise SuperTrak 
SX6000. However, there is still something strange that we cannot fix:

When the system is powered up, the SuperTrak BIOS is initializing the 
adapter. If we manually *abort* the initialization, Linux will boot 
without problems and we can use the hardware raid.

However, if we let the controller initialze the adapter (that is the 
default), the kernel will always Oops when I2O is loaded:

Oops: 0000

Please help ;-)

P.S.: this happens with all kernels that we tried (2.4.7, 2.4.9, 2.4.14, 
2.4.17)
