It is correct! :-)
But after upgrade from WGS Linux-Pro Kernel 1.2.13 to
RedHat 4.2 (kernel 2.0.30) It wasn´t detected.
I used i:\dosutils\autoboot.bat on the RedHat cd from
dos (IBM dos7 :) and put aha152x=0x340,11,7,1,1 in
LILO, and the upgrade did run without problems.
So, does the defalt upgrade kernel in RedHat not support
AHA152x and should one compile a new one?
By the way i have SB16 with AHA1510 on board (no bios?).
