I am running 2.0.24 (with the no_atime patch) on a news server. I have two SCSI adapters in it: an Adaptec 2940 and a DPT 3224. I have the OS & swap on sda and the history file on sdb attached to the Adaptec and a big RAID array for news spool attached to the DPT. When I boot up with 2.0.24, I get "Unable to open initial console" and everything stops. I finally realized that the DPT was suddenly being detected first. I had to change drivers/scsi/hosts.c to get the Adaptec back first. I have 2 questions:
1) Why was the DPT moved above the Adaptec in 2.0.24?
2) Is there not a better way to get the order of multiple host adapters? -- Chris Adams - cadams@ro.com - System Admin - Renaissance Internet Services "So, if anybody wants to have hardware sent to them: don't call me, but instead write your own unix operating system.
