I have an Adaptec AHA-2940 with SCSI BIOS +level v1.32. I call Adaptec and they informed me that the original AHA-2940 +would not be supported, but that the AHA-2940 Ultra Kit, or the 29160N SCSI +controllers would support the Linux 7.1 install. + +Is there a way to use the old drive with the new kernel? I would rather not +have to spend $275.00 for a new controller. Justin, Is it true that the older AHA2940UWs (without the Wide/Narrow bridge) are unsupported by your drivers? FYI, I am still unable to get a 2949UW based system to boot using 2.4.6 or prior. I am going to try 2.4.5-ac24 since that has some PCI fixes.
