I am trying to upgrade to kernel 2.6.15-r1 from 2.6.12-r4. Now that we |
| 2 |
are in the brave new world of udev, My Fusion MPT 1030 scsi controller |
| 3 |
has suddenly become invisible to the kernel - read no devices being |
| 4 |
created. |

Platform - AMD Opteron Dual Processor 270 |

Tyan MoBo |

My favorite, LSIs lovely scsi controller |

Buit to i686 |

I have - |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
1) inserted sleep statements in linuxrc |
| 14 |
2) used scandelay=X where X is some integer greater than 10 |
| 15 |
3) used doload=mptspi |
| 16 |
4) compiled the drives into the kernel directly (mptbase, mptscsih, |
| 17 |
mptspi) |
| 18 |
5) built other kernels |
| 19 |
6) insert commands into linuxrc to show the state of the system as |
| 20 |
booting occurs. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Gentoos boot/install cd does not recognise this hardware (It's using |
| 23 |
2.6.15-r5) |
| 24 |
This is true using both the x86 image and the x86_64 image. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
However, booting to 2.6.12-r4 (devfs/udev hybrid) works fine. |
