Package: kernel-2.6.18-4-686 Severity: normal
On 50 pin part of SCSI system, local system uses long cable, and is restricted to 5 MB/s for reliability (does not matter for my slow bus users on 50 pin). Adaptec Driver in Sarge respected Adaptec BIOS user settings and negotiated 5 MB/s with these devices. Never any problem.

Since a 1 out of 5 chance for a successful boot didn't please me, I have compiled a new kernel with an old driver, which does not have this problem.
