No, I didn't. But, I did go back and remove that offending module from the list to compile. Things now are going OK.
I guess there was just a bug in that source code for that module. But since
it is just a low level scsi driver, hopefully it won't bother anything. It
is odd how such a thing could escape into the wild.
CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX: This driver supports all of Adaptec's PCI based SCSI controllers (not the hardware RAID controllers though) as well as the aic7770 based EISA and VLB SCSI controllers (the 274x and 284x series). This is an Adaptec sponsored driver written by Justin Gibbs. It is intended to replace the previous aic7xxx driver maintained by Doug Ledford since Doug is no longer maintaining that driver.
I guess I won't be installing any adaptec PCI based SCSI controllers for a while.
that module is not just for PCI based controllers, its also for some onboard controllers for some intel mobos. i've used that module in the past, so whatever was wrong with your build must have been more involved than just that one module. perhaps a module conflict?
