RE: [newbie] Adaptec SCSI Installation AVA 1505
Well, the full story is : Portbase = 0x340this is jumpered on the board IRQ = 9 this too is jumpered on the board SCSI ID = 7 which is fairly standard recconect is enabled parity is enabled synchronous is enabled delay = 500 extended translation is disabled thus we get the command insmod aha152x aha152x=0x340,9,7,1,1,0,500,0 and for a glorious half hour last night that seemed to be accepted so that when I checked KDE/Information/IRQ against 9 it said AHA152x and against KDE/Information/Ports against 340 it said AHA152x. dmesg identified the board and wqas suggesting ftape as a tape device - even though that didn't seem to work. Anyway, now the command insmod etc no longer works, I have the same error message I started with: Using /lib/modules/2.2.17-21mdk/scsi/aha152x.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters including invalid IO or IRQ parameters and dmesg says: aha152x: BIOS test: passed, detected 1 controller(s) aha152x0: vital data: PORTBASE=0x340, IRQ=9, SCSI ID=7, recconect=enabled parity=enabled, synchronous=disabled, delay=500, extended translation=disabled aha152x: trying software interrupot, lost. aha152x: IRQ 9 possibly wrong. Please verify. So in the words of the prophet and philosopher Foul Ole Ron - 'buggrit, millenium hand and shrimp, I tole 'em.' (Explanations upon request :o) ) So if anyone has any valid suggestions for my problem... regards Daryl (ps Valid suggestions for my problem do NOT include 'rub ointment on it'!)

I found a doc which suggested that the silk screening of the jumpers on the board was faulty but use the diagram instead in the online manual available on the Adaptec site. I checked and found that I WAS using the correct jumper for IRQ 9 and also port 0x140, neither of which were causing conflicts in the tables. On a whim I jumpered the board top use port 0x340 and tried the insmod command insmod aha152x aha152x=0x340,9,7,1,1,0,500,0 and the board loaded! scenes of riotous joy All I have to do now is find out which tape device in /dev my Colorado likes. Sheesh.
