hi,

I'm trying to make this card work under 2.4.4, but I couldn't find a patch
anywhere to get it working under 2.4.x nor on 2.2.x. I tried with the I2O
kernel support, but it didn't work, it only reported errors after a pretty
long waiting :)

The CDROM the card comes with brings a precompiled module (dpt_i2o) which
works fine (only?) with 2.2.14.

Adaptec web site says next to nothing about current linux drivers for this
card. I don't understand why they don't just provide a patch against
current 2.2.x and 2.4.x ...

The best I've found is http://people.redhat.com/tcallawa/dpt/, where
they provide a rpm packaged 2.2.19 kernel already with support for adaptec
2100S, and works :-) ... (where did they get the driver??? mistery...)

So, is it possible to make it work under 2.4.4? :-)

ps: has anyone the patch againt 2.2.x? (it would be nice to have the
patch, although I already have 2.2.19 with support)


Thanks.

You need to 2.4.4ac8 or higher for dpt i2o_scsi and 2.4.4ac5 or so or higher
for dpt i2o_block

well, I applied 2.4.4ac8 (I couldn't find ac9) and I still have only
errors when recognizing the hardware. The long waiting is gone. I will try
to send the messages somehow. They were not saved on log files because it
couldn't mount the devices (and I don't have a spare disk to do the trick
:/)

Ideas?

This is OK. I am asking the card for tables and it is telling me it doesnt
have them

/dev/sda is the RAID1

my /dev/dsa is a RAID1 made of two quantum atlas 10K II 18.xGb.
Unfortunately I have to get this RAID running this week (maybe on
wednesday) and after that I won't be able to do tests... so.. maybe
I would have to use 2.2.19 instead of 2.4.4  :-(...

What makes you think /dev/sda is the raid?  For me cat /proc/scsi/scsi
lists all 4 drives which, to me, implies that it is raw.

fdisk could not partition the raid by default.  I needed to use sfdisk the
first time.  After that fdisk worked fine.

If I have both modules loaded I can mount /dev/i2o/hd/dics0/part1 but not
/dev/sda1 (no filesystem).

I was hoping i2o_scsi would make it appear as a "normal" scsi device, but
I don't think that is happening with the current driver.

If you are having a different scsi setup I would be interested in trying
to set my system up the same way.  Thanks!

							Later, JOSH

Before merging both hard disks I saw each of them as a separate SCSI
device, at boot time and when the system booted up. After building the
RAID1, when the system boots I only see one RAID device recognized, and so
do I when linux recognizes it.

[root@lala log]# cat /proc/scsi/dpt_i2o/0
Vendor: DPT Model: 2100S            Rev: 320P, scsi 0:

DPT I2O Driver Version: 1.14/1.14:

        cmd_per_lun = 210, max_id = 15, max_lun = 7, max_channel = 0
        sg_tablesize = 39, irq = 11, OutstandingMsgs = 0
        maxfromiopmsgs = 64, maxtoiopmsgs = 210

    Devices:
        Channel = 0, Target = 1, Lun = 0
[root@lala log]#

[root@lala log]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 01 Lun: 00
  Vendor: ADAPTEC  Model: RAID-1           Rev: 320P
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
[root@lala log]#

If I want to see each device separately I have to go to the controller's
software by pressing ctrl-a at boot time.

linux.adaptec.com is where they put linux stuff.
Ask Deanna_Bonds@adaptec.com for the latest 2.4.x kernel patch/driver for dpt
i2o controllers.
