Hi All,

I am experiencing quite a bit of trouble getting any linux kernel from
the 2.2.x or 2.3.x series to run on my server. The server stats are as
follows:

motherboard: umax UDBX-AS with integrated scsi - (AIC 7880)
ram: 96M
disks 2* seagate ST39140W

The kernel will boot and load happily until it reaches the scsi initialisation
phase. It happily detects the the onboard scsi, but dies part way through
the initialisation phase. Here is an example of what appears on the
console:
...

(scsi0) <Adaptec AIC-7880 Ultra SCSI host adapter> found at PCI 12/0
(scsi0) Wide Channel, SCSI ID=7, 16/255 SCBs
scsi0 : Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x (EISA/VLB/PCI-Fast SCSI) 5.1.2/3.2.4
       <Adaptec AIC-7880 Ultra SCSI host adapter>
SCSI: aborting command due to timeout: pid 0, scsi0, channel 0, id 0, 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
SCSI host 0 abort (pid 0) timed out - resetting - trying harder
...

It will continue to do this until the kernel panics.

any ideas?

peace
Chris
