I currently try to set up a server with an Adaptec 2810SA RAID controller. While testing the Adaptec command line utility aacraid (actually the command "controller list") with a vanilla 2.6.12-rc2 kernel I got the following kernel oops - maybe someone is interested, maybe someone as some help for me:
