When I try to boot an SMP kernel on an Dual Xeon system (Asus PR-DLS533 motherboard) with option "nosmp", the Fusion MPT driver does not work anymore: It prints a startup message, can't find any device on the SCSI bus and keeps resetting the bus on and on. Messages look something like this (copied from memory by hand, as the system obviously can't write logfiles to the disk... ;-): [...] Fusion MPT base driver 2.05.05+ Copyright (c) 1999-2002 LSI Logic Corporation mptbase: Initiating ioc0 bringup ioc0: 53C1030: Capabilities={Initiator} mptbase: Initiating ioc0 recovery mptbase: Initiating ioc0 recovery mptbase: Initiating ioc0 recovery [...] I verified this behaviour with linux 2.4.23 and 2.4.24-pre2 and Fusion MPT drivers 2.05.05+ (original) and 2.05.10 (patched) - - andreas - -- Andreas Haumer | mailto:andreas@xss.co.at *x Software + Systeme | http://www.xss.co.at/ Karmarschgasse 51/2/20 | Tel: +43-1-6060114-0 A-1100 Vienna, Austria | Fax: +43-1-6060114-71 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/6DxpxJmyeGcXPhERAk05AJ9blmW44tfQUIkO+SAizxdecv74hACePG2/ 0KwfHv0kd2w55EnHWggFQ+I= =eX3J -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
