Hi,
Has any one succeeded in running the latest sources with RH9 (2.4.20-8)
kernel? Specifically, these are the sources sent out by Justin T. Gibbs.

In my case the driver loads fine, but it takes a while to initialize(?). I get
errors like:
scsi0: Host status: Failed(0)
...
The latest source on my site is for aic7xxx 6.3.4 and aic79xx 2.0.4.
Are you referring to these versions? Have you tried the pre-built
drivers for this kernel which are also on my site?

I got this tarball from your website: aic79xx-linux-2.4-20031106-tar.gz.
I untarred on top on my private 2.4.20-8 kernel tree. Should I have
deleted the aic7xxx directory before I did this?
I did use an older version of the binary driver RPM. I faced versioning
problems at the RPM install script level and (if I did a manual install
of the binary in /lib/modules/2.4.20-8custom) the kernel versioning
problem. This driver works fine with standard RH kernels though.
I am hoping for a solution that will enable me to have a super-kernel
that will run on multiple H/W configurations without hacking on init
scripts. That's why I am interested in getting the driver build and
install properly from sources.
Thanks,
L.
P.S. This info comes from the same machine when booted with stock RH
2.4.20-8. /proc/scsi/0:
Adaptec AIC79xx driver version: 1.3.10
Adaptec AIC7902 Ultra320 SCSI adapter
aic7902: Ultra320 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, PCI-X 101-133Mhz, 512 SCBs
