The other day I did a fresh install from cdrom of release 4.0 on a machine that was running release 3.4 without trouble. This machine has an Adaptec 2940u2w scsi card on the pci bus. The initial boot of release 4.0 and all others filled the console screen with the following message: AHC0: Data Parity Error Detected During Write Phase This was using the GENERIC kernel with all scsi devices enabled. Needless to say none of the scsi devices attached to this card were accessable (disk, cdrom). I finally got rid of the console messages by commenting out the ahc line in the kernel config file and rebuilding a new kernel. Just to be sure I had not completely lost it I reinstalled the 3.4 release from cdrom on the same machine and the scsi card and system worked fine again. Can anyone out there shed some light on this problem? Thanks in advance! Daniel Konnoff __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
