Re: adaptec 1505 / potato



Since the AVA1505 does not have an on-board bios, you have to tell the module where
it's at.  Give the options at load time with "modprobe -a aha152x
aha152x=0x340,11,7"(ioport,irq,scsihostid)  or using modconf, give the options where
prompted.  Put an append statement in lilo when you've figured it out.  You are using
this card just for a scanner, right?  It's not too overly sophistocated.

"I was on a Boston to New York shuttle flight that gets stuck on the runway for 3 hours
with no explanation. Worse, I'm sitting in front of three idiot consultants from Razorfish
who spend the whole time talking loudly and incessantly. Remarkably, not one word of it
resembled any productive activity in the slightest. 'So, I conducted a series of group
discussion sessions to quantify how they establish their procedures.' 'But, Bianca, how
did you formulate the framework for evaluating their paradigms?'
        My favorite line - Bianca is irate because a client asked her for some concrete
bit of information: 'Can you believe that? Hello? I'm an Information Architect, not a
Knowledge Engineer!'" --dump() on slashdot
