It was a SCAM!
Well, SCAM seems to be the problem. I don't know if it's a behavior
particular to the new Linux driver, but the SCAM-assigned IDs got ignored
to some extent. What seemed to be happening was that the HD (not a boot
device, BTW) that was SCAMed to ID#15 ended up being ID#0 to
Suggest putting HD on SCSI 0 vice CD. Some bios's want to boot from 0.

I seem to recall having this problem; if memory serves, termination is the
right route, but the thing to be *sure* of is that auto-termination is
turned off on the card. Terminate it whatever way you want it to be, but
avoid the auto-termination option.
Good luck!

Hi Matt,
I have also had this problem several times, usually updating the kernel does
it for me, but it looks like you're already tried it. If checking the
termination doesn't solve the problem, i would then check the speed of the
bus using the SCSI Select utility. You might want to lower the s

I've noticed that in /usr/bin (I think) is a symlink from cc to gcc

This probably won't work. The correct solution is to modify the top level

I probably should have explained better on RH7.OH!, gcc is gcc

I certainly agree with Derek on the binary compatibility. Maintaining binary
compatibility causes the growth of libraries because of legacy code. For instance,
time_t changes to 64 bits. WIth binary compatibility there must be a mechanism for
older programs to run correctly without recompilatio

Thanks for the info John.
I was thinking more along the lines of the sysadmin incompatibility
issue: I vaguely recall xinetd being basically an improved replacement
for inetd+tcp_wrappers. If you just have 1 linux machine it is not such
a big deal to tweak it into working again after an upgrade

First and foremost, to my knowledge it is a lot more security minded.
