SYMPTOM
- Computer has two SCSI cards. The kernel has one of the SCSI driver
monolithic, along scsi and sd.
- After kernel boots, the second card's module is loaded.
- The second SCSI bus has more than 2 hard drives
- All SCSI disks from first bus are usable with no problem. However,
only the first two of the second bus are visible. The third and
next fail with errors
SOLUTION
- edit /usr/src/linux/drivers/hosts.h and change
#define SD_EXTRA_DEVS 2
into
#define SD_EXTRA_DEVS 3
if you have 3 disks on the second bus, or to 4 if you have 4, etc.
Similar problems presumably for tapes, generic, etc.
