I am trying to get a NCR53c810 SCSI card working in my Pentium
100, but I am not having any luck. Every attempt to load the ncr53c8xx.o
module (no matter the kernel compile flags) has been:
Aug 16 15:43:42 farstar kernel: ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 6, function 0
Aug 16 15:43:42 farstar kernel: ncr53c8xx: not initializing, both I/O and memory mappings disabled
Aug 16 15:43:42 farstar kernel: scsi: 1 host.
This machine also has a buslogic scsi card driving two 2GB seagate
drives (one being boot disk), with no problems. There is on board IDE, but
there is only a single channel active, and nothing connected to it. There
is also a 3c590 PCI Ethernet card, and a PCI video card. I have set the
jumpers on the NCR SCSI host to "Int D" and "Int A" with no more luck.
Does this card not work via modules, or is there something else I
am missing? I bought this card used, so it is possible that it is bad,
that is if the above error message leads to such.
Basic, would some one please help me in getting this card working?
Thanks!
PS. I had an adaptec SCSI card in this machine earlier, so it was
working just fine with two SCSI hosts. I bought this NCR card for an
Alpha, but the Alpha didn't even make it past the AlphaBIOS boot before
giving an instruction error. So I took the adaptec card from the Pentium,
put it in the Alpha (which it likes just fine), and then put the NCR card
in the Pentium.
