Adaptec AHA2940UW and kernel 2.6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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]
