I have now been able to reproduce these problems with 2.4.20-ac1, and
three different systems. It is sufficient that the host adapter (I
tried with two different ncr53c8xx based HAs and one adaptec 2940UW)
is present in the system.
With 2.4.20-ac1, the system kernel panics after misdetecting the
drives. The panic can only be seen in expert mode and happens even
when a kernel command line not containing the hda=scsi .. hdh=scsi
parameters is forced into syslinux.cfg.
If devices are present, they are misdetected as well. See this example:
ID Hardware present Hardware detected
0 none ST 0123 456789ABCDEFGHIJ KLMN
1 IBM Harddisk IBM Harddisk (correct)
2 none IBM Harddisk (same as ID 1)
3 none IBM Harddisk (same as ID 2)
4 Plextor CD-ROM Plextor CD-ROM (correct)
5 Teac CD-R Teac CD-R (correct)
6 none Teac CD-R (same as ID 5)
7 Hostadapter Teac CD-R (same as ID 5)
I do not suspect that this is a Knoppix problem, since "original"
Knoppix works fine. However, I must be doing something wrong. Can
anybody more familiar with SCSI Emulation please comment?
Do I see it correctly that modyfing my local Knoppix to work without
SCSI emulation is a major endeavour?
Any hints will be appreciated.
Greetings
Marc
