RE: [gentoo-user] 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 and Adaptec 2940
Hello,
I think mine used to do that when I used genkernel. I know something SCSI
was in a loop, but I couldn't read the screen because something was wrong
with the console. I ended up compiling by hand and I just included aic78xxx
in the kernel. Then things were fine.

Are there any known problems with Athlon XP kernels and a plain old
Adaptec 2940? I have one driving a slide scanner and a CD-ROM, and it
fails to initialise.
After successful POST, and the Adaptec screen identifies the devices
hanging off the chain, the init procedure gets knocked for a loop. It
gets stuck producing messages like:
host 1 abort timed out - bus is being reset
(scsi:0:-1:-1) Disconnected list inconsistency ...
Yikes! There is a loop in the free list ...
and this goes on and on, bumping the pid up by one as it goes.
It worked fine under Redhat 7.3 (kernel 2.4.20-20.7). I'm a little
suspicious that the card might be borked, as Knoppix 3.2
didn't pick up
any devices on the chain.
I tried setting acpi=no in the kernel parms, but that didn't help. I
haven't yet tried to restart under RH7.3; that would involve a bit of
hard-drive shuffling.
Ideas, suggestions, replacement cards welcomed.
thanks,
Stewart

I had the same problem with gentoo-sources. Went back to generic sources. On Tue, 2003-10-28 at 20:35, Stewart C.
