Hi folks,
aha1542 misses a disk on 2.0.31 and 2.0.33 ;
scenario:
aic7xxx compiled into kernel, one disk (-> /dev/sda )
aha1542 compiled as module, loaded after boot, 4 devices
/dev/sda[bc] are found, checked, and work
/dev/sdd is found, but later ignored
/dev/sr0 is found and works (cd burner)
The disk at /dev/sdd is otherwise fine and works if mapped to /dev/sdb or sdc .
Apparently the forth disk is just plainly ignored:
fdisk /dev/sdd
Unable to open /dev/sdd
And its not checked for partitions (which it should, even if there aren't any
on it yet, right ?)
Disk, cables, terminators etc. where swapped and didn't influence anything.
Increase the value of SD_EXTRA_DEVS in linux/drivers/scsi/hosts.h.
Leonard
