The kernel I was using was a prebuilt Debian kernel. I'm not sure how to rebuild it from source. Horms, if you could point me in the right direction, I'll give it a try. For now, I've built a kernel using the linux-source-2.6.14 package (version 2.6.14-2). It's massively stripped down so that it compiles in a semi-reasonable amount of time on this very slow PC. Strangely, this one boots. It throws out a lot of error messages, but it boots. I'll attach the configuration and the log here. Is there still any need to try this patch? > --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c > +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c > @@ -816,8 +816,10 @@ spi_dv_device_internal(struct scsi_devic > * do the SPI pattern write tests */ > > len = 0; > +#if 0 > if (scsi_device_dt(sdev)) > len = spi_dv_device_get_echo_buffer(sdev, buffer); > +#endif > > retry: The boot log shows that execution is getting past there, to line 846: target0:0:0: Domain Validation skipping write tests Sorry for the confusion.
