Subject: 2.6.10 and .11 SCSI booting problems /w fusion card
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2005 12:33:17 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1DGKab-0001Hd-Aw@admin.eth0.us> (raw)

Sorry for posting the last email without a subject, I am just resending
this one with a subject.

I am fairly new to the mailing list but have been playing around with
kernels for awhile. I have successfully built 2.4 and 2.6 kernels on
different types of remote servers but this latest problem has me
stumped. The config I am using was working fine under 2.6.9 but 2.6.10
and 2.6.11 both are not able to boot up. I have posted the config at
http://eth0.us/?q=node/39 if anybody is interested to look. On boot I
get the cannot mount /dev/sda3 every single time when trying with a
kernel above 2.6.9. 

I have tried with modules and without module support. 

The problem comes from the following SCSI card in a dell poweredge server:
SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c1030 PCI-X
Fusion-MPT Dual Ultra320 SCSI (rev 07)

The driver that the 2.4 kernel uses is:
alias scsi_hostadapter mptscsih

Does anybody have any idea why this is happening or what can be done to
get it to boot? I have tried to compile it on a many different servers
with the same results. I have also asked a few people and they have not
been able to get it working. Any ideas or pointers in the right
direction are GREATLY appreciated! I have searched google but so far
have found nothing useful.
