The device itself (as described by lspci): [quote lspci -v] 0001:40:0c.0 RAID bus controller: IBM SCSI RAID Adapter [ServeRAID] (rev 10) Subsystem: IBM Unknown device 022e Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 23 I/O ports at e4000800 [size=256] Memory at d7f00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Expansion ROM at d7eb8000 [disabled] [size=32K] Capabilities: [40] Vital Product Data Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2 [unquote] Not sure why lspci shows IBM Unknown device, as in Fedora Core 5 for powerpc it is shown correctly as 'Subsystem: IBM ServeRAID-4H'. I am using 'Debian GNU/Linux testing "Etch" - Official Snapshot powerpc' downloaded 23/06/2006. Same IPS driver behaviour exhibited on official 'sarge' 3.1r2 netboot CD.
