Hi !
I've got new 440BX Asus motherboard with Adaptec 7890 on it.
I know now that only new CAM code can support it.
I've got boot floppy with CAM, taking your advice.
Then I boot up system - Adaptec 7890/91 was found and after all others da0 was also
found.
So I installed the 2.2.6-stable SA-05-12 and everything seemed to be fine ...
After installation I got in Fixit --> Fixit Floppy and iserted floppy made from
kernel.flp and remove kernel.CAM.gz to root partition and ungziped it.
After all I rebooted ....
Adaptec 7890/91 was found again. After probing all other devices it began to mount /
. But da0 was not found up to this time ... So it said "panic cannot mount / (root
2). The system will reboot. Syncing discs .... "
And only after that it found da0 with all nessesary atribbutes.
But that's too late so after 15 sec it rebooted. Also I can "press any key" and it
will "wait for another touch-down" to reboot.
I retype from screen all the information, sorry for being not exact in details.
I really need to have an ability to boot the system from SCSI disk.
Any suggestion what to do ???
Thanks, Alex N. Zhuravlev
