Comments/Problems:
The SCSI controller is a COMPAQ DDRS-39130W with two 9.1GB SCSI disks.
2.4 kernel correctly recognize and handle the SCSI controller, while
2.6 does not. Using 2.6.7 partman says that no devices are available.
I did try to modprobe all kernel modules from the scsi directory, but
the
hardware was never recognized, so I think that this controller isn't
supported in the newer kernels.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Giuseppe
