%UATTACH
I'm trying to install linux on an AViiON 5900 (quad PPro 200Mhz, 1Gb memory)
connected to a CLARiiON disk array by an NCR SYMBIOS diff card (rev. 3.07).
Actually the ncr53c8xx driver hangs just after scanning the devices on
the disk array. The behaviour is the same booting both stock 2.0.28
and stock 2.1.25 (no SMP in both cases), with the ncr driver in the system
or loaded as a module. Here the syslog output for 2.0.28 when the ncr
driver is loaded as a module. After this the insmod process just hangs,
but the system is still fully operational (except for the devices detected
on the ncr scsi bus, which are not operational).
Any suggestion from the ncr guys?

PS: the same system works fine with both DG/UX and Netware 4.11.
