So is > this a bug of the driver? I have the same problem. I couldn't install RedHat5.2 (2.0.36) (mount failed, after scanning the scsi-bus). RedHat5.1 (2.0.34) aic7xxx-5.1.10 was successful. Trying the 2.2.[0-2] showed the same problem. Adding some boot-options, like: aic7xxx=no_reset aic7xxx=extended aic7xxx=no_probe didn't help. (How to append two an more options in lilo.conf ?) I've tried booting without any CDROMS and on both Channels, tested some options of the SCSI-Adapter, limited the speed, checked the termination several times, .... The config is some different: Tyan Thunder S1836DLU-BX (BIOS 1.16) with AIC7895 (UW) IBM DRVS UW I could post all config and error logs but it's about 20k. I'm wondering why it works with an older kernel version 2.0.34 (compiled with SMP-support). Some new features in the SCSI driver, that results my kernel-panics?
