For me 2.4.3 + aic7xxx-6.1.10 work fine. I just changed the default bus settle delay from 15000ms to 5000m, and enabled APIC: CONFIG_X86_GOOD_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=y The machine boots, devices are properly detected (unlike 6.1.8), CDRW reads and burns fine, CDROM

Looks like an IRQ problem to me. I mean the kernel wants to change IRQ routing and just do the wrong job. Ingo reported me a similar problem a couple of week ago that made failed the sym53c8xx driver. Looks very similar to this one with the kernel PCI code wanting to assign IRQ 11 to almost

I confirm similar problems (see my message from yesterday). AIC7XXX_OLD also failed for me. I have tried aic 6.1.8 as well as 6.1.10. Both 2.4.0 under redhat 7.0 and 2.4.1 as shipped by redhat wolverine work. As have all earlier versions going back to 2.3.xx and 2.2.x On Mon, Apr 09, 2001

I've got a trio of identical PIII machines all failing with aic7xxx under 2.4.3. I've tried both aic7xxx 6.1.9 and 6.1.10 in addition to the one in 2.4.3 (6.1.5?). These machines work fine under 2.2.18pre21. I'm looking for any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this. (Ok, honestly I'm hoping

A typical startup with 6.1.9 proceeds like this... (6.1.10 hangs silently after emitting the scsi0 and scsi1 adapter summaries, maybe it is going through the same gyrations silently.) Try saying N to the AIC7xxx driver and Y to AIC7XXX_OLD and see if that works. This is important both
