milo hangs on detecting ncr53c8xx in SX after swapping slots
Hi,
I just swapped out my Matrox Millenium for a Radeon VE/7000 on my SX box,
but I ran into a weird problem. After swapping the card , the Radeon did not
come up OK , seems it failed to initialize the BIOS.
I swapped it from the first to the second 32 bit pci slot , moving the scsi
card from that that slot to the first slot. This is a symbios 53c810 narrow
controller. I also have an adaptec 2940 for my harddisks.
After that , the radeon did initialize its bios , arc would come up and find
all hardware ok , and start milo.
When telling Milo to boot, it will probe the hardware, and then , when it
found the scsi controller using the sym53c810 driver , it will find it again
with the ncr53c8xx driver , hangs milo because of a resourcing conflict
between the 2 drivers....
At least , thats what I figure from the messages milo gives out before it
hangs.
Is there a way to tell milo not to probe for ncr53c8xx ?
Or even , not to halt on errors because I boot from the adaptec, which gets
detected ok.
All hints are appreciated !
Regards,
Jaap
