I don't know i didn't alter anything in srm mode so as i know the boards should be
the same i have 3 axpci33 2 in mij servers and 1 backup (if one breaks)....

An oeps on mij part i see that i put 2 outputs from differt kernels in this
message.. but in the 2.2.3-ac4 i did use the ncr53c8xx driver..


hda: QUANTUM FIREBALL EX6.4A, ATA DISK drive
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
hda: QUANTUM FIREBALL EX6.4A, 6149MB w/418kB Cache, CHS=13328/15/63
Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 2.88M
FDC 0 is a National Semiconductor PC87306
ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 6, function 0

ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 8, function 0
ncr53c8xx: PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE not set, features based on CACHE LINE SIZE not used.
ncr53c8xx: 53c810a detected

ncr53c8xx: PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE not set, features based on CACHE LINE SIZE not used.
ncr53c8xx: 53c810a detected
ncr53c810-0: rev=0x01, base=0x4200000, io_port=0x8000, irq=11

ncr53c810-0: restart (scsi reset).
ncr53c810a-1: rev=0x12, base=0x4201000, io_port=0x8800, irq=10

ncr53c810a-2: rev=0x12, base=0x4202000, io_port=0x9000, irq=13
ncr53c810a-2: ID 7, Fast-10, Parity Checking
scsi0 : ncr53c8xx - revision 3.1h
scsi1 : ncr53c8xx - revision 3.1h
scsi2 : ncr53c8xx - revision 3.1h
scsi : 3 hosts
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid, scsi2, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
ncr53c8xx_abort: pid=14 serial_number=29 serial_number_at timeout=29

And then it just does nothing at least in the 20 minutes it i needed to
type this over from the other computer..

Is it posable that on the ncr53c810a-2 irq 13 not the best irq because
on the other kernels it runs up 9,10,11 with the 2.1.130 kernel strange.

After looking around in the readme from the scsi driver that it is not
posable to set irq's enz..

Wel see above but on the extra 2 scsi controlers there is no hardware.
