Rob, I found a reference to the adp94xx driver on Adaptec's site as adp94xx-openbuild-b5484.i386.tar.gz ( http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/support/driverdetail.jsp?sess=no&filekey=adp94xx-openbuild-b5484.i386.tar.gz&language=English+US ). I was able to follow the instructions to merge the adp94xx driver source with a 2.6.16.1 kernel however it fails to compile. I will try again later this evening with a 2.6.13 kernel since I've read of some people having success with this. Is there another source from Adaptec for the adp94xx? Or is there anyone I can contact for support on this issue? Thanks.
