Hi all, I am trying to install an information server for our company, but I get SCSI time-outs with the 2940-UW (bios revision 1.32 perhaps C), when tagged queueing is on. when it is off, I get much lower performance. this is my hardware config: Pentium II-266Mhz FX-440 Intel motherboard, two quantom IDE harddrives. one Adaptec SCSI controller (bios revision 1.32C) the harddisk I 'have to' use is PROCOM-RL43 (a 8x2G raid set) for a total size of 17216MB space. Kernel Version 'I have to use it too!' is 2.0.30. I tried another revision of controller (1.21) and it worked painlessly, but, is there a patch for fixing the problem for 2940UW-1.32C for linux-2.0.30? or there is something wrong with that controller? controller makes kernel to generate time-outs during a simple execution of 'mke2fs -b 4096 /dev/sda1' where /dev/sda1 is a 7G paritition. I've to make the system work till Sept. 10th. any and all ideas are welcome. regards, Massoud.
