Hi!
I have play around a little and the found out the following:
The problem is IN THE "insmod_ /tmp/initio.o"
I have tried to start installation and the manually extracted module to
/tmp and tried to manually
load it with insmod_ initio.o, SUPRISE SUPRISE: Controler is detected,
BUT THEN insmod just WON'T EXIT!
It freezes!! Other consoles run along but insmod freezes...
Since I know this controler works just GREAT normally I tried and loaded
same module with "insmod -f" under
my running kernel. Everything worked OK! Even if module I used was
compiled for the "installation" kernel
I think the problem must be in some option in the installation kernel.
Is the PROBE ALL LUN'S on (scsi)?? I think this caused problems when I
turned it on in the kernel somewhere in the past...
Bye, Alen
