Hi,
I am trying to install SCSI 2940 on my debian linux (currently running
2.0.29).
I got this error message when I boot the machine up :
May 8 05:02:36 pc172-104 kernel: aic7xxx: BurstLen = 0 DWDs, Latency Timer

May 8 05:02:36 pc172-104 kernel: aic7xxx: AHA-2940A Ultra Rev C.

May 8 05:02:36 pc172-104 kernel: scsi : detected total.
Does it have anything to do with PnP or wrong BIOS? I inherited this card
and I do not have any documentation. I checked adaptec's page for more
information but I could not find any info about disabling PnP. I am not too
sure if I should change the bios setting either. I have also checked the
SCSI-HOWTO but I could not find any info about this error message. I am
desperate.
I have also tried upgrading to linux version 2.0.30 but I still got the
same error message.
I would appreciate any comments.
Thank you.
Suryani.
