Hi, I have this Adaptec 29320LPE SCSI board (used the aic79xx driver) which give several errors during boot time, just after it recognizes the HDs connected to it. If I remove the SCSI HD there are no SCSI errors. The very first error messages have scrolled up and I don't know how to get to them (is there a way?) but here is the transcript of what I can see: scsi0: hwerrint, Sequencer Parity Error scsi0: hwerrint, Data-path Parity Error scsi0: hwerrint, Scratch or SCB Memory Parity Error scsi0: hwerrint, CIOBUS Parity Error >>>>>>>> Dump Card State Begins <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< scsi0: Dumping Card State at program address 0xffff Mode 0x77 Card was paused INTSTAT[0xff] SELOID[0xff] SELID[0xff] HS_MAILBOX[0xff] INTCTL[0xff] SEQINTSTAT[0xff] SAVED_MODE[0xff] DFFSTAT[0xff] SCSISIGI[0xff] SCSIPHASE[0xff] SCSIBUS[0xff] LASTPHASE[0xff] SCSISEQ0[0xff] SCSISEQ1[0xff] SEQCTL0[0xff] SEQINTCTL[0xff] SEQ_FLAGS[0xff] SEQ_FLAGS2[0xff] QFREEZE_COUNT[0xffff] KERNEL_QFREEZE_COUNT[0xffff] MK_MESSAGE_SCB[0xffff] MK_MESSAGE_SCSIID[0xff] SSTAT0[0xff] SSTAT1[0xff] SSTAT2[0xff] SSTAT3[0xff] PERRDIAG[0xff] SIMODE1[0xff] LQISTAT0[0xff] LQISTAT1[0xff] LQSTAT2[0xff] LQOSTAT0[0xff] LQOSTAT1[0xff] LQOSTAT2[0xff] SCB Count = 4 CMDS_PENDING = 65535 LASTSCB 0xffff CURRSCB 0xffff NEXTSCB 0xffff CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000004 CPU 0: BAnk 4: 3200000000070f0f Kernel panic - not syncing: CPU context corrupt Some extra info on the machine: # cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.25-rc4 (root@lab) (gcc version 4.1.2 (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.0.2)) #3 Wed Mar 5 12:21:22 BRT 2008 # lspci 00:00.0 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.1 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 0 (rev a2) 00:00.2 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 1 (rev a2) 00:00.3 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 5 (rev a2) 00:00.4 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 4 (rev a2) 00:00.5 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.6 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 3 (rev a2) 00:00.7 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 2 (rev a2) 00:02.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:03.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:04.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100] (rev a2) 00:09.0 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:0a.0 ISA bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 LPC Bridge (rev a2) 00:0a.1 SMBus: nVidia Corporation MCP51 SMBus (rev a2) 00:0a.2 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Memory Controller 0 (rev a2) 00:0b.0 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation MCP51 USB Controller (rev a2) 00:0b.1 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation MCP51 USB Controller (rev a2) 00:0d.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP51 IDE (rev a1) 00:10.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 PCI Bridge (rev a2) 00:10.2 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation MCP51 AC97 Audio Controller (rev a2) 00:14.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a1) 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 02:00.0 PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc.
