aha1542.c: interrupt received, but no mail.
If this error occurs rarely there is no problem, as it's just reporting on what happens. I removed a similar warning from the obsolete BusLogic driver before rewriting it entirely.
BusLogic SCSI: buslogic_out: failed(4) Buslogic SCSI: buslogic_stat status=39 intrflags 84 BusLogic SCSI: setup_mailboxes: failed setting up mailboxes. aha1542_in failed(3): Unable to determine Adaptec DMA priority. Disabling board No BIOS32 extensions presnet. This release depends on it. Sorry. scsi : 0 hosts. scsi : detected total.
This is due to problems with the obsolete BusLogic driver as described in the SCSI-HOWTO:
6. Linux 1.2.x gives the message
Unable to determine Adaptec DMA priority. Disabling board.
This is due to a conflict on some systems with the obsolete BusLogic driver. Either rebuild your kernel without it, or give the BusLogic driver a command line option telling it to look somewhere other than where your controller is configured. Ie, if you have an Adaptec board at port 0x334, and nothing at 0x330, use a command line option like
buslogic=0x330
So, you can keep the obsolete BusLogic driver from interfering with the Adaptec 1542 driver for your hardware by using the command line "buslogic=0x130".
