Hello all, ok, so installed ol module AND disabled parity checking. But alas: still problems. This time I got:
Jul 17 13:24:02 mini kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 44049, scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0 0x28 00 00 14 b1 e7 00 00 08 00
a few times before the machine hung. What gives ? Controller is aha-7890. This is pretty common hardware. Can't really believe there are problems here. Hmmm.... Any ideas ?
A very familiar error message. Make sure you specify "apic" parameter to the kernel. I went through hell with this on Intel L440GX+ motherboards until I discovered that without apic IRQ is not properly set up for the SCSI controller and system hangs forever on initializing aic7xxx module. A good explanation is in http://uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0109.2/1366.html. Regards, -Kastus
