Re: Updated installation images for Debian Ports 2019-05-09



Hello Meelis,

Perhaps of interest ... i was being hit with the qla2xxx driver panics as well on my v880.
I unplugged the second FCAL loop to the backplane, and this fixed it.

Perhaps this is something you could try?

Yes, I should try it on some sun4u too. And probably bare hardware sun4v -
all my sparcs run Linux natively.

About Blade 1x00/2x00 and E280R: they use qla2xxx for root disks and last
I tried this was broken in the kernel. It may be better now but older Symbios
and newer MPT etc controllers would probably be a safer try if you have them
available.
