having some wierd things happen with my new scsi setup
the card is an adaptec 2940u2w the drives are 18 GB IBM SCSI
I have them set up with one big partition each for testing
wierd thing 1)
they are not in fstab but they seem to mount anyway
I can use them - read/write files, etc.
wierd thing 2)
df doesn't see them
wierd thing 3)
if I add them to fstab (diskdrake did this for me) the system won't boot
(something about not finding superblocks)
I had to fix fstab with vi in repair mode (or whatever it's called)
wierd thing 4)
the aic7xxx module does not load at boot time but I think it is set up in
conf.modules
something added the scsi_hostadapter stuff automatically
cat /etc/conf.modules
shows:
alias eth0 eepro100
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
pre-install plip modprobe parport_pc ; echo 7 > /proc/parport/0/irq
pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start
alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx
post-install supermount modprobe scsi_hostadapter
Am I missing something?
