Hi there,
I'm trying to install Gentoo on a HP xw8000 computer (2 Xenon 3.0 GHz
processors) but have some SCSI problems. The computer has been setup with
only a SCSI and no IDE harddrive. The IDE CDROM works OK. The SCSI
controller is a dual channel Ultra 320SCSI. At boot I use
# gentoo doscsi
(I've tried "smp doscsi" but my screen goes black , even if I add the
"nofb" and/or "agpgart" option)
There is only an empty /dev/scsi directory and no sdXX entries in /dev
after boot.
The gentoo hardware detection procedure finds only one processor (of
course, standard gentoo kernel), the mouse at /dev/psaux, the netowrk
device at eth0 and the sound and videocard. All that stuff seems OK. But no
SCSI controllers or devices.
The dmesg output says:
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
<repeat two more times>
# cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Not much experice with SCSI. Can anyone immediately see the problem ?
