I've managed to get 2.1.97 to fail to boot in four different ways, all seemingly related to the BusLogic driver. They were:
1) Driver seemingly initializes OK, then I get a "Divide error - 0000" oops. This only happened once, and I was going to write down the trace "next time", so I don't have one.
2) Driver fails to initialize:
scsi0: While configuring BusLogic PCI Host Adapter at Bus 0 Device 11 I/O address 0xFFF4 PCI Address 0xFFBEF000 scsi0: INQUIRE SYNCHRONOUS PERIOD FAILED - DETACHING scsi0: ADDITIONAL FAILURE INFO - Timeout waiting for Command Complete scsi0: 0 hosts scsi0: detected total
after which things hang.
3) Same thing except I get:
scsi0: INQUIRE BOARD ID FAILED
4) Initialization completes, the board and the disk are detected, then the system simply hangs.
On the bright side, no fsck is needed after this sort of failure! :-)
I'm back to a .8x kernel and life is good again. For what it's worth, info in /proc is:
