Hi - we've recently acquired a Linux box with a scsi card (an Adaptec
1505) in it here at work, and we've been having a few problems getting it
to work:
The box has a P200 on an ATC-1020+ motherboard, and is running Linux
2.0.29.
The SCSI support has been enabled in the kernel, as has the low-level
driver for aha152x boards (This seems to be the right one, according to
the SCSI Howto). SCSI Disk support and SCSI generic support have also been
enabled.
We've tried booting both with and without Autoconf override,
The override commands we tried were:
aha152x=0x340,11,7,1
and
aha152x=0x340,11,7,1,1
The DOS software that came with the card detects the card correctly as an
Adaptec 1505, and detects the SCSI Jaz drive conected to it as well, so
it doesn't look like a cabling problem.
We haven't changed any of the jumper settings on the board, and the manual
claims that the default settings are indeed port 0x340,IRQ 11,SCSI ID 7,
Reconnect on and Parity on.
Ive read the Howto a few times, but can't seem to find anything more to do
with the 1505c or the 152x driver that's relevant. Any one got any idea?
Help would be greatly appreciated. (Hope I haven't missed something
really obvious. If so, apologies for wasting your time.)
Vivek
