more SCSI Woes
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Ok I got a differt SCSI card...the only one I could find in a reasonable
price range locally was an Adaptec 1520 ...it is suported by the
152x driver I should hope...
here is the problem...
it coems up..in SCSI Bios and with jumpers I have set:
IRQ: 10 (also tried 11, and 9...all of which have the same behaviour)
io: 0x340 (also tried 0x140)
SCSI ID = 7
BIOS Adress DC000
..the SCSI bios detects my tape drive (SCSI ID 4)
then linux boots (command line aha152x="ioport,irq")
then...
it BIOS test Passed...
other stuff...
then
"aha152x: trying software interrupt lost"
and "aha152x: IRQ (the IRQ I chose and appended in lilo) possibly wrong.."
then it says that every ID it tries is timing out
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 6, scsi0, channel 0, id 6,
lun 0 Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
anyway...I did a "cat /proc/intterupts" and got:
[sjc@Shit-Box sjc]$ cat /proc/interrupts
0: 386167 timer
1: 10542 keyboard
2: 0 cascade
4: 123116 + serial
5: 165 NE2000
8: 2 + rtc
12: 150329 PS/2 Mouse
13: 1 math error
14: 49013 + ide0
15: 0 + ide1
and: (ioports)
[sjc@Shit-Box sjc]$ cat /proc/ioports
0000-001f : dma1
0020-003f : pic1
0040-005f : timer
0060-006f : keyboard
0070-007f : rtc
0080-008f : dma page reg
00a0-00bf : pic2
00c0-00df : dma2
00f0-00ff : npu
0140-015f : aha152x
0170-0177 : ide1
01f0-01f7 : ide0
0300-031f : NE2000
0376-0376 : ide1
0378-037f : lp
03c0-03df : vga+
03f0-03f5 : floppy
03f6-03f6 : ide0
03f7-03f7 : floppy DIR
03f8-03ff : serial(set)
What could possibly be wrong? I have tried every feasable setting...
and the SCSI BIOS detects the tape drive (and I have SCSI Tape Drive
suport compiled in kernel)
..I posted earlier...
someone suggested verifing the interupts and trying the other
ioport...I have...im even using a new adapter
I have never tried to setup SCSI before (on aPC...SCSI setup
was a no brainer on my Apple II GS way back when (shamefully I admit
way back when was 3 years ago)
this is starting to get frustrating...what could it be?
I NEED backup capability I read the SCSI HOWTO...still no help
same for the kernel SCSI readmes
