Hello list;
I have the above SCSI controller.
I downloaded the 2.6 source and installed it.
It compiles fine under RH9.
The 2.6 failure is in the make initrd for the AIC7xxx
My method:
'cd /usr/src/*2.6*'
'make mrpoper'
I copied my working RH9 .config and used
'make menuconfig'
I tried making everything scsi with no modules, and with all modules.
Then 'make bzImage modules modules_install install'
I get an initrd error 'error AIC7xxx no module:'
I am on a different machine right now and don't have the full error
display.
I do have a /initrd directory.
Here is my working setup :
lsmod <snip>
aic7xxx 126516 0
sd_mod 12780 0
scsi_mod 100632 5 [sg sr_mod ide-scsi aic7xxx sd_mod]
