#4 lore raw

hello joshua,

thanks for your followups,
had time again to look at your bug report.

the trouble is quite shown in the troublesome dmesg and in the working cat /proc/modules.

I just tried installing etch with the beta2 installer. This system loaded the floppy module before the cpqarray module, yet could not find the arrays either. Still, the sarge system upgraded to etch works fine with the floppy module loaded in the initramfs.

adding the floppy seems to kick sym53c8xx at loading later:

ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:01.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 177 sym53c8xx 0000:00:01.0: device not supported
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:01.0 disabled
Compaq SMART2 Driver (v 2.6.0)
cpqarray: Device 0x10 has been found at bus 0 dev 1 func 0

cpqarray: Finding drives on ida0<4>cpqarray ida0: idaSendPciCmd Timeout out,

see sym53c8xx disables your interrupt for cpqarray. try my theory and use instead of floppy:
echo cpqarray > /etc/initramfs-tools/modules regenerate initramfs with update-initramfs -u. plese post the resulting dmesg.

adding linux-scsi and Matthew Wilcox to cc.

best regards
