Subject:   Problem with AmiMegaRaid 1500 64 Bit card

Sorry if this is a repeat I had problems with my mailer :)



I saw this thread on the news groupd and was wondering if somone could
help.

I have a AmiMegaRaid 1500 64 Bit controller which also stops at
amr0: <AMI MegaRAID> mem 0xe7800000-0xe73fffff irq 12 at device 16.1 on
pci0
while booting. I have tried 4.4-RELEASE and a 5.0-CURRENT snapshot
(5.0-20011019-CURRENT).

The bios comes up as PowerEdge Expandable Raid Controller p00 Oct 22,
1999
so I assume it is out of a Dell..

Although it is a 64 bit controller I have it in a 32 bit slot where all
my other 64 bit cards
seem to work fine. (the AMI card is the only card in the system whle
testing...)

I am still wating for my 64Bit motherboard to get here but in the mean
time any help
would be greatly apreciated.

Thanks very much in advance!!! :)

I have this happening with one that was sent to me as working from a
Dell
system.  I don't have an answer on it yet; I'm talking to AMI about it.
