Hello folks,

I have an ASUS P2B-S mainboard featuring an Adaptec AIC-7890 Ultra2
chipset with a single device connected, a TEAC CD-R55S cd-writer,
both working reliably ever since I bought them in 1998. The transport
setting are

a while and then try to put it in as a bug fix for 2.6.15.

This works for me. The DV write tests are skipped and the system boots
cleanly. The boot messages are the same as when we

Sure enough, the kernel now boots. I'll attach the dmesg output here.
Do you guys have a final patch in mind?
Let me know if there are other tests you'd like me to run. Now that I
know how to do this, I should be able to turn around

My best guess would be that the bus is slightly marginal. The
aic7xxx drivers are notoriously sensitive to bus problems. Could you
try lowering the bus speed to 10MHz in the aic7xxx bios and see if
that helps?
Sure. I changed the

The device is on a non-LVD bus. Certain devices were created back when
