I am receiving timeout errors on boot preventing the OS to load when using an old CDROM drive and a Quantum Atlas IV drive: SCSI: aborting command due to timeout: pid 0, scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0, Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00 SCSI host 0 abort (pid 0) timed out - resetting SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0 (last 2 lines repeat indefinitely) With the same hardware configuration, I did not receive these errors with the Linux 2.2.3 kernel, but they I first came across them with the 2.2.10 kernel. Also using the Adaptec SCSI software under DOS does not result in any obvious errors (no errors are displayed during loading). I have looked through the archives and looked at termination issues as well as trying the "no_reset", "panic_on_abort", and "override_term" parameters at bootup. Following is my configuration. If I provide anything else that would be usefull, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
