Hi,
When trying to compile module for sym53c416 I received an error
'address not in structure'. I traced this to - asm-i386/scatterlist.h. It is missing - char * address - at the beginning of the structure. I copied scatterlist.h from 2.4.18 and it compiled fine.

Hope this helps,

Please don't call this a solution. The char * address item is no longer valid, so adding it back to the header won't make the driver work, it just makes it compile and then write garbage all over your disks the first time you try to use it.
