Hello I am having trouble to set up a zip scsi in my linux box. The module aha152x is loaded during boot time but returns an error message about the irq number. I am sure the irq number is 11 ( I copied from the NT settings - it is a dual boot machine). What am I missing here? Thanks a lot.

Check the /etc/modules.conf file and look for the aha152x entry. If I recall correctly, there should be an "options=" statement and the first number is the interrupt. It might be different than what the system is actually booting the card up as. Christopher Reimer On Thu, 24 Aug 2000, mendes wrote:

Check to see if another board is using this IRQ (a PCI board, i.e.) These IRQ are setted first if the Plu&Pray is active and there is no reservation for IRQ 11 in the BIOS setup. mendes wrote:

Hi, I have a similar setup.. To load the aha152x you need to specify options. The first is the IO address and the second the interrupt. THere are other options but usually I don't need them. My line in boot.local is -------------------------------- # load aha152x scsi for Zip Drive modprobe aha152x aha152x=0x140,9 -------------------------------- The default IO adress is 0x300 which doesn't work for me. But changing to 0x140 worked a treat. You should be able to get the IO address from NT as well as the interrupt. One thing I noticed is that even if NT reported IRQ10 for the card linux always put it on IRQ9. Not too sure why this happens, probably something to do with NTs plug&pray driver!! RiKD mendes wrote:
