Have you compiled the SCSI generic support in your 2.2 kernel ? It is required for this controler to work. -- Jean-Philippe Guérard

Oddly enough, I've been able to get this to boot from the base slink install (2.0.36), but am unable to get this to work when I try to use potato or upgrade the kernel to 2.2.x, after recompiling in megaraid support. I tried booting it from the slink CD on a whim; I didn't actually expect it to work. Unfortunately, I need 2.2.x for Lotus Domino and SMP support, so leaving it at 2.0.36 is not an option, as appealing as that may seem. -- Hecubus
