This worked well, but when I ran into a hang with the 2.4.2 loop device, testing a CD image, I decided to switch to 2.4.3. But then I get strange error messages during boot, and the machine reacts (kind of once a day) in a very strange way, like programs failing which never fail. Might those errors have lead to a subtile kind of file system corruption? Inspite of the `request_module' message below, I compiled the driver into the kernel and do not use any disk related kernel modules. And of course, at a so early stage, the root file system was not yet mounted. Below are the SCSI related lines from the boot messages, first with 2.4.3, and 3 minutes later back with the previous 2.4.2 kernel. Andybody how could tell me what to do? Please CC me as I'm not on this list. Thanks in advance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Linux version 2.4.3 SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0f.0 The same IRQ used for device 00:11.0 scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.1.5 aic7892: Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/255 SCBs scsi0:0:0:0: Attempting to queue an ABORT message scsi0:0:0:0: Device is active, asserting ATN Recovery code sleeping Recovery code awake Timer Expired aic7xxx_abort returns 8195 scsi0:0:0:0: Attempting to queue a TARGET RESET message aic7xxx_dev_reset returns 8195 Recovery SCB completes scsi: device set offline - not ready or command retry failed after bus reset: host 0 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 Vendor: QUANTUM Model: ATLAS_V_18_WLS Rev: 0230 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03 Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 2, lun 0 (scsi0:A:2): 160.000MB/s transfers (80.000MHz DT, offset 63, 16bit) Vendor: HP Model: CD-Writer+ 9200 Rev: 1.0e Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0 (scsi0:A:6): 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 15) scsi0:0:2:0: Tagged Queuing enabled.
