driver. Do you know if this one is 64bit capable?
The lasi700 driver works fine in a 64 bit kernel, yes.
You have right I just reinstall an external disk on lasi700 (53c700) cont= roler
and boot a 64bit kernel (with ncr53c8x as module) :-)
BUT it is horribly slow:
o it takes about a 1.5 h to boot (about 5 min for its twin 32bit)
o a ssh connection takes about a min too (only some seconds for 32bit=
kernel)
and fwiw top:

just show an 100% idle system?
Another known issue for this kind of d model?
Any idea?
Thanks,

obviously I remove also raid5 support but it doesn't help :-(
Would I ever have a chance to boot it 64bits?
Here are some additional strage stuff:
[snip]
CPU(s): 1 x PA8000 (PCX-U) at 180.000000 MHz
Whole cache flush 378186 cycles, flushing 274443696 bytes 107618208 cycle= s
Setting cache flush threshold to 0xeb780 (1 CPUs online) [snip]
LASI 82596 driver - Revision: 1.30
Found i82596 at 0xffffffffffd07000, IRQ 17
eth0: 82596 at 0xffffffffffd07000, 00 00 00 00 08 00 IRQ 17. [snip]
while the 32bit kernel said:
[snip]
Setting cache flush threshold to 20 (1 CPUs online) [snip]
LASI 82596 driver - Revision: 1.30
Found i82596 at 0xffd07000, IRQ 17javascript:OnPhoenixSend();
eth0: 82596 at 0xffd07000, 08 00 09 D2 89 15 IRQ 17. [snip]
Questions are:
o could it be that 'cache flush threshold' value was the reason why t=
he
system became so slow?
(couldn't it be why ncr doesn't start correctly?
s=3D2 sec in top actualy means about 30sec between 2 changes in d=
isplay
:-( )
o Is nic 82596 is not 64bit ready? (apparently didn't report the righ=
t
MAC Address?)
Thanks in advance for help,
Joel
