When you boot, you should get a message describing [an] unknown PCI device ID[s]. The PCI code has to be modifed to support these IDs, and then the driver has to be modifed to recognize them also. > Where can I find a kernel that detects my SCSI adapter ? > If there is not yet a kernel that detects this SCSI adapter how > can I learn how to write one, or help someone (more qualified) to do it ? There isn't a kernel that detects one, but if you send all the relevent information, I can release a patch to the PCI code and the aic7xxx driver. Dan Eischen deischen@iworks.InterWorks.org
