This is happening in 2.1.98 and 2.0.33
First off, a quick overview of the Tekram DC390F's behaviour at boot.
BIOS POST. Blah. Stuff. Tekram DC390F Bootthingy F2 or F6 for config.. Depending upon configuration, it will follow one of two steps at this point. - Probe each ID, 0 through 15. - Probe each ID, starting at 0, and probe each LUN, starting at 0. If no disks found, "BIOS NOT INSTALLED"
So, it won't install BIOS with just a cd-rom attached. Okay? Now that that's clear...
Hanging off my DC390F;
ID0: Pioneer DRM-624x SCSI Changer ID1: IBM DCAS 2.0G HDD ID2: Toshiba 2x SCSI CD-ROM
BIOS *IS* installed.
dmesg time!
scsi : 0 hosts. scsi : detected total. early initialization of device whitehole is deferred Evaluating net profiler cost ...49 units
Now, I've never seen this 'whitehole' thing. I suspect it has something to do with the DC390F. Anyways, it's NOT detecting with the NCR drivers. Any ideas at this point? It looks to me like it's not handling something correctly.
Bus 0, device 10, function 0: SCSI storage controller: NCR 53c875 (rev 3). Medium devsel. IRQ 9. Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=17.Max Lat=64. I/O at 0x6200 [0x6201]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe1020000 [0xe1020000]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe1021000 [0xe1021000].
There it is in /proc/pci, so it's just not picking up at boot. Any ideas? This is driving me nuts! :(
