Hello,
I have a AMD scsi driver built into the motherboard of my HP vectra
XU 90 .. This is where my Linux boot disk is.
I recently installed a Adaptec 2940 card and linux would not boot
because it saw the Adaptec first and not the AMD ... so I added the
boot option
append = "aic7xxx=reverse_scan,aic7xxx=verbose"
and it still did not worked. What I had to do was hardcode it to
make sure it saw the AMD host first in the file
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/hosts.c in the array built_in_scsi_hosts{}
Is there a better way ?
In any event it still failed to work as dmesg reports ?

It looks like something to do with IRQ 10 .... Does anyone have any
ideas ??
