Got the same ISA SCSI card (aha1542 with 1540CF/1542CF V2.01 BIOS). Couldn't get freaking card to work either..... Did the following: A) insmod isa-pnp B) insmod aha1542 C) tried to mount a CD and the system froze complete. Only cure was to push the reset button..... Still running under 2.2.18...... Atleast it works some what...... Could you test this also under kernel 2.2.18???? A) open your CDRW and put a CD in it. B) don't close the drive. Try to mount the cd. C) drive should close and try to mount the cd. Could you tell me what happens???? With me it try's to mount the cd into infinitie.... Also need a reboot to get access to my cd drive.... I'm strongly consideren buying a AHA2930U and hope it's supported under linux and the problem goes away....... Guy Van Sanden wrote:

This looks to me like everything would be ok, yet attempts to mount the device give "mount: /dev/sda1: unknown device". Also, in /proc/scsi/scsi is only one line that reads, "Attached devices: none".

If you're trying to mount a CD, then you'll want to try 'mount /dev/sda' as CDs aren't partitioned.

...

I tried to do "insmod aha1542" and get "Using /lib/modules/2.4.2-4GB/kernel/drivers/scsi/aha1542.o /lib/modules/2.4.2-4GB/kernel/drivers/scsi/aha1542.o: unresolved symbol isapnp_find_dev"

Try using the modprobe command, rather than insmod, as this will satisfy any module dependencies that the aha1542 module has (you might want to run the 'depmod -a' command beforehand if this doesn't work). Alternatively you could specify IRQ/IO for the card along with the modprobe command (I've never really used isa_pnp - I always turn PnP off for any ISA cards I have).

If the module loading doesn't give you any error, you can type: cat /proc/scsi/scsi to check which SCSI devices have been found in your system, or you can do what I usually do and use 'cdrecord -scanbus', assuming you have cdrecrd installed. If not, just use the cat command. If you get the drive detected after booting, then you can start working to get it detected as the system boots...

...

I also found this in my boot log, "<6>SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 <4>3w-xxxx: tw_findcards(): No cards found. <3>request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted <3>request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted <3>request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs not mounted"

This looks to me like the wrong SCSI driver here.

Hope that helps,
