I'm at a loss. Maybe I'm not loading the module correctly:

insmod qlogicfc 

and

modprobe qlogicfc 

seem to do the same thing. The BIOS defaults are used. The Host ID is set
to hard and 0. The drives are ID'ed as 50000000004000ff, and the
controller is 200000e08b00761d. It reports this:

Sep 10 16:53:46 thing kernel: scsi0 : QLogic ISP2100 SCSI on PCI bus 00
device 58 irq 11 base 0xe400
Sep 10 16:53:46 thing kernel: scsi : 1 host.
Sep 10 16:53:46 thing kernel: wwn: 200000e08b00761d  scsi_id: 0  loop_id:

Sep 10 16:53:46 thing kernel: wwn: 50000000004000ff  scsi_id: 1  loop_id:
1
Sep 10 16:53:46 thing kernel: Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0,
id 1,
lun 0

It seems fine, EXCEPT - there are 6 drives not one, and when that drive is
used (ie, mkfs) it works until:

Writing inode tables:  139/1004

and then either hangs, reboots, or scsi-errors itself to death.

I tried the newest qlogic code, still does this. The drives are IBM 8.8
gigs. I'm at a loss. If anyone else has run multiple fiber drives under
RedHat linux 6.0 (default) I'd appreciate some  hints on getting it
working.

The hardware is:

Gigabit network card - hamachi driver (complains about timeouts / resets)
Denistron motherboard
IDE harddisk for booting off of

And that's it.

Any ideas?
