Hello CLUG members,

I might have an interesting case of SCSI misbehaviour here. The story
is: I have a system with two SCSI controllers, an Adaptec 2940 with
three hard disks, and a 1542 to which a MO drive gets connected
occasionally. I am booting from one of the drives on the 2940, so I
have the 2940 driver compiled into the kernel. The 1542 driver is a
module, and I load it from boot.local. My kernel is 2.2.19.

All this was working fine - until I replaced the motherboard with a
more up-to-date one. I really only swapped the motherboard, and now I
get this at boot-up:

   aha1542.c: Unable to abort command for target 0
   aha1542.c: Trying device reset for target 0
   aha1542.c: Unable to abort command for target 0
   Sent BUS RESET to scsi host...

And this goes on for all the remaining target numbers and then starts
over again. Now I have google'd around and found some vague
information which does not lead me further. I have tried the
following, without any different outcome:

- Removed the aha1542 module and compiled it into the kernel
- Turned on and off PnP in the MoBo BIOS
- Turned off the Adaptec BIOS
- Tried it with a 2.4.10 kernel

all to no avail. I would highly appreciate any comments on this. What
I find particularly strange is that the whole setup worked straight
away without any problems with my old Pentium-I board, and it does not
work with a slightly more recent board.

Kind regards,

Helmut Walle.
