Matthew> If you've got an IDA or IDA-2 controller I'd love to talk to you. I just tried the 03/20 -current snapshot on an old Compaq ProLiant 2000 server . This box is currently running a -current from about Feb 1999 with a Mark Dawson's original ida driver. This is the output I get at boot from the 03/20 SNAP: ... eisa0: <EISA board> on motherboard mainboard0: <CPQ1519 (System Board)> on eisa0 slot 0 eisa0: unknown card CPQ6101 (0x0e116101) at slot 5 ida0: <Compaq SMART array controller> at 0x6c88-0x6c9e, irq 15 (level) ida0: on eisa0 slot 6 panic: ida_wait: incorrect qcb returned Does the driver in 5.0-current actually support this card? I'd be happy to help debug/test the driver if there is any interest in having this supported. Matthew> | Matthew N.
