Hello everyone. More about HP's fu**ing NCR53c400A card.
I tried that "loadlin procedure" someone posted yesterday (sorry, I
don't
have the mail around, but thank you). I think I read this person didn't
use
ncr_irq, so I tried without first:

boira:~# modprobe g_NCR5380 ncr_addr=0x290 ncr_53c400a=1
scsi0 : IRQ0 not free, interrupts disabled
scsi0 : interrupts not enabled. for better interactive performance,
scsi0 : please jumper the board for a free IRQ.
scsi0 : at port 0x290 interrupts disabled options CAN_QUEUE=16

DMA

#### Ok, trying with irq...

boira:~# rmmod g_NCR5380

My limited understanding tells me that this second try was a good one.

I hope this helps. I wish someone can fix this so I (we) don't have to
depend on MS-DOS. Luckily this box has it.
Thank you for your attention and don't hesitate to ask me for more
information if there's need.

Regards,

Jordi (happy).
