| |
after watching from the sidelines for a while I finally had some time to try the 2.5 kernels over the weekend.
unfortunantly I was unable to build a kernel that will work for me.
the system is a K6-3 400 with several IDE drives and a SCSI drive hooked to an adaptec 2940. LILO and the boot kernels are on IDE, but the linux root filesystem is on the SCSI drive
I compile the kernel without a problem, but when it boots it generates several screens of errors as it attempts to initialize the SCSI buss. unfortunantly I don't have a serial console on that box so I haven't been able to capture the messages (I can't capture dmesg becouse the system never finds the drive and so can't complete the boot)
I have verbose errors turned on, and have attempted both the old and the new drivers with the same results.
this system ran 2.4.0 up until about two months ago when I upgraded to 2.4.18 and has had no problems.
a quick google search has not found any posts about this, although 2.5.50-ac1 has a fix for this driver (doesn't sound like quite the same problem though)
suggestions? additional info required?
