Ok, I am using a module named 'qla2300'. I did build my own kernel, and made sure to choose the 'CONFIG_SCSI_QLA2300=m' and 'CONFIG_SCSI_QLA2XXX=m' options. Upon rebooting the hotplug stuff saw the cards and loaded the module for me. Here's what the output should look like if all goes well: qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Found an ISP2312, irq 225, iobase 0xf88f8000 scsi5 : qla2xxx qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Configuring PCI space... qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Configure NVRAM parameters... qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Verifying loaded RISC code... qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Waiting for LIP to complete... qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: LOOP UP detected (2 Gbps). qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: Topology - (F_Port), Host Loop address 0xffff qla2300 0000:02:0a.0: QLogic Fibre Channel HBA Driver: 8.00.02b5-k QLogic QLA2340 - 133MHz PCI-X to 2Gb FC, Single Channel ISP2312: PCI (33 MHz) @ 0000:02:0a.0 hdma-, host#=5, fw=3.03.08 IPX > Here is the procedure to rescan and add devices under linux per Qlogic : > > To force a rescan from the command line, type the following command: > # echo "scsi-qlascan" > /proc/scsi/<driver-name>/<adapter-id> > (QLogic driver rescans) I tried this: # echo "scsi-qlascan" > /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1 -bash: /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1: No such file or directory I'm assuming this is because the qla2xxx directory does not exist (nor does any other qla<blah> directory)... so i tried creating it manually: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mkdir /proc/scsi/qla2xxx mkdir: cannot create directory `/proc/scsi/qla2xxx': No such file or directory maybe i'm not allowed to play around in /proc like that? any tips?
