aic7xxx and 2.4.3 failures
I can add a "me too" to this thread.
I began playing with 2.4 releases (again) at 2.4.2-ac23 and i can't manage to boot it properly, even the 2.4.3-ac2. I have an adaptec 2940U (aic7860 as driver tells me) and both drivers, old and new, dont work properly. Either i get request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted, and then what seems to be a random oops a couple of seconds later in the beginning of the init scripts, or, root fs doesnt get remounted rw, which is followed soon by some oopsen. I reported one back then (
http://boudicca.tux.org/hypermail/linux-kernel/2001week13/0077.html ).
Looks weird ... have there been any changes around aic driver recently? I can try to write down some more oopsen if anyone is interested ...
On the other side, 2.2.19 with new aic driver 6.1.10 is working just nice ...
