boot options for an Adaptec AHA-1542CF
Hi, I hooked up an Adaptec AHA-1542CF controller to my linux box and put 3
old CDC 150 MB Hard disks on it. (frees me a much larger disk
for other purposes)
anyway, i partitioned and formatted them for DOS --> all work fine.
when installing RH 4.2 on this - i selected the 1542 SCSI controller and
told it to autoprobe and get the following error on the alt-F4 terminal:
><4>Configuring Adaptec (SCSI-ID 7) at IO:334, IRQ 12, DMA priority 7
><4>aha1542.c: Using extended bios translation
>
><4>scsi1 : Adaptec 1542
><4>scsi : 1 host.
><4>scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 0, scsi1, channel 0 , id

><4>SCSI host 1 abort (pid 0) timed out - resetting
><4>SCSI bus is being reset for host 1 channel 0
><4>Sent BUS DEVICE RESET to target 0

><4>Sending DID_RESET for target 0
><4>Sending DID_RESET for target 0
><4>Sending DID_RESET for target 0
><4>Sending DID_RESET for target 0
><4>Sending DID_RESET for target 0
... it then goes back to the "aborting command due to timeout" and goes on
and on forever like this.
Can anybody please suggest a solution (possibly boot options for the SCSI
host) to the problem?
