A couple of years back I had similar problems with the on board isp1020 on an Alpha XP1000 workstation when using the 2.6 kernel qla1240 driver, and had to install another scsi card requiring a different driver to solve the problem. Four or so months ago I thought I would try the qla1240 driver again. It worked fine and I have now removed the extra scsi card I had previously installed and have had no problems running with the qla1240 driver for the onboard qlogic isp1020. I do run a self-compiled verbatim kernel that is usually kept pretty much up to date. Michael. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

That's correct, the netinstall CD includes only a single kernel for the common case. The normal usage is to install using the UP kernel and install the SMP kernel package afterwards, or else to install from a full-CD image that includes the SMP kernel. On alpha this is problematic because the official SMP kernel packages on alpha have trouble with some modules, but maybe this wouldn't be a problem in your case? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

Debian had far and away the best supported Linux distribution on the Alpha platform at the time I installed it on my PWS 433au, and I do not think that situation has changed. Please sign up for *all* the Alpha-related mailing lists you can find (debian-alpha@lists.debian.org and [EMAIL PROTECTED] at a minimum) to ensure someone in the community will see a call for help.
