Last week, I reported a problem booting my machine with a AMI megaraid card. This problem appeared on -mm kernels >= 2.6.12-mm1 and on 2.6.14-rc1. I tried applying a patch from Christoph Hellwig, which did not resolve the problem.

Now I am seeing the exact same bug on a different machine, using a different raid controller (3ware 9xxx series) when trying to install 2.6.13-mm1.

Is there any chance that this is a kernel configuration problem, or has something recently changed in the scsi drivers that is affecting both drivers?

Jack,

There was a bug in 3w-9xxx that became apparent with the latest scsi-block-2.6 merge. Can you re-test the 3ware 9000 with 2.6.14-rc1?

The 3ware machine works with 2.6.14-rc1; still no luck with the Megaraid machine.
