Hi, I am about compiling and installing a new Kernel to support all of my hardware. The kernel compiles, sound is working all modules are compiled and installed.... If I do a 'modprobe sym53c8xx' an error occurs because of "invalid interrupts or I/O adresses". I read somewhere that SCSI modules must be loaded at boottime. Now I have to make an image so the SCSI modules are loaded at boottime, otherwise my Controller will not be supported I suppose. 'mkinit_rd -k vmlinuz-2.4.17-test -i inird-test' failes because it "cannot find a free loopback device"... This seem quite strange to me because I checked the option for loopback support when I compilesd the kernel and /dev/loop0 ... /dev/loop9 exist. So Has anyone an idea what went wrong? Thanks Thomas
