An update, some progress,
On a lark I did a modprobe for aic7770
It listed the controller and attached drives.
You probably mean the aic7xxx.o kernel module. A module with name
aic7770.o is not known on my FC1. I even never heard of a SCSI module by
that name.
Hmmmm
If you type in as root "modinfo aic7xxx" you will get some information
about optional module parameters you can pass when loading the module.
Maybe even the example line for EISA/VLB system is interesting for you
How do I make this work routinely? And how can I tell if it loaded
the new
sequencer code?
Load the module and create a new ram disk using command mkinitrd.
"mkinitrd --help" will show you how to use the command. Move the newly
created initrd.img file to /boot and be sure it is called in
/etc/grub.conf. Edit the /etc/modules.conf with a line
alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx
maybe followed by a line like
options aic7xxx 'aic7xxx=probe_eisa_vl.tag_info:{{}.{.10}}.seltime:1'
whatever parameters you are passing to the module.
To me this is mindless hacking extraordinaire. I have no idea why it
worked
nor where to go from here.
