If you get this to work let me know. I tried for a week. Then purchased a LSI MegaRAID 320-2X card which works right out of the box. But look at http://i2o.shadowconnect.com. There is a driver there. I never used it because I didn't like the non-scsi emulation. I contacted Adaptec's support back in October and they said they were working on replacement i2o driver's. Then contacted then a few weeks ago and was told they no longer are working on them. Go figure. Now I have 4 wasted 2015S ZCR Raid cards.

Hello, I have a dual Opteron 146 system which happens to have an Adaptec (DPT) SmartRAID V Controller that I have installed SuSE 9.2 (64bit) on.
Is there any way to build the 64bit kernel with the dpt_i2o module? I know !64BIT is a dependency, but the release notes for the module mention having at least some 64bit support.. Bueller?
I couldn't find a reference to someone doing this anywhere on the list or otherwise, so maybe it is impossible, but I would like to believe it isn't.

Ditto on if you get this to work. On my dual Opteron 148 using SuSE 9.1 I can't get my Adaptec RAID to work like it should. I was only able to get it to work with a specific 2.6 kernel. I contacted Adaptec and they basically said they would only support the kernel that shipped on the disk only. If I update the kernel, I was on my own. They also pointed the finger at SuSE, even though I've experienced the problem with other distros. The only kernels I got to work without problems was 2.4 kernel distros. If I can't get this resolved soon, I've decided to replace it with an LSI MegaRAID card as well and scrap ever using an Adaptec card again in anything. John Scott
