Dear All,
Starting off with a 29160 and 2 IBM 160 drives I have now been reduced to a
2940UW Pro with the same hard drives.
I have patched the 2.0.36 kernel to no avail, I have upgraded to the 2.2.16
and further the 2.2.17 kernel.
I have patched all the patches on the aic7xxx site.
I am near tears.
I cant get the system to boot now on the 2.2.17 as It bombs out with a
SELTO problem, 2.2.16 works sometimes but then falls over with the scsi bus
reseting. The 2.0.36 patched kernel works fine except when I do something
active on the harddrive like compliling a kernel at which point the file
system slowly starts corrupting.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HAS ANYONE MANAGED TO GET A WORKING STABLE SYSTEM WITH
ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SCSI CARDS AND WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO ACHIEVE IT:
ADAPTEC 29160
ADAPTEC 2940 U2W
ADAPTEC 2940UW Pro
ADAPTEC 2940UW
I have reached the point of begging humbly.
Will supply any info required.
With thanks
Michael
