I am running it with 2.6.9 (and 2.6.8.1 before that). I do apply a couple of patches to the driver though. I got them from this page: <http://www.gulu.net/krd/hpt_rocketraid404_linux.html> and they work just fine. > From highpoint support i understood that the driver doesn't > suppport yet 2.6.10 Yeah, I heard the same thing and got the same errors when I tried to build it anyway. >From the looks of the 2.6.10 ChangeLog, specifically this entry: -------------------------------------------------------------------- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [PATCH] remove abort,reset methods from host templates Due to the prototype changes they'd been giving warnings since before 2.6.0 was release, it's time to finally kill them. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------------------------------------------------------- It looks like the kernel maintainers removed part of the SCSI interface that was never used. I did a quick patch of the file hpttempl.h from the 2.12 version of the HighPoint driver where these fields are references and it seems to build cleanly. However, I am not included to run with this change myself as I would rather wait for the all clear from the HighPoint folks when it comes to a device driver that could trash my entire disk. If you want to live on the end, drop me an email and I'll send you the patch file for this change. - Rob -- (please do not send me extra copies of mailing list posts.) -- [email protected] mailing list
