I'm trying to get a firm answer from the folks who originally
discvoered the problem some time back, it seems you have two options:
- during installation of RHEL4 (and not RHEL4U1), load with the
'noprobe' option:
linux noprobe
and manually select the appropriate drivers to load.
- (post installation) modify the /etc/modprobe.conf to and rename the
qla2300 entry to qla2322 (i.e.):
alias scsi_hostadapter1 qla2322
modify the modules.pcimap table to load qla2322 for the 2322
device-id:
qla2300 0x00001077 0x00002322 ...
to:
qla2322 0x00001077 0x00002322 ...
Beyond that, I'd suggest you log a report with Redhat, as that's the
extent of the workaround knowledge without going to RHEL4U1.
Hope this helps,
Andrew Vasquez
