I will have to boot back into 2.6.3 later today. I am using the stock Debian kernel: kernel-image-2.6.3-1-686 From config-2.6.3-1-686: # # SCSI device support # CONFIG_SCSI=m CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y # # SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM) # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=m CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=m CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR is not set CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=m # # Some SCSI devices (e.g. CD jukebox) support multiple LUNs # CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y # CONFIG_SCSI_REPORT_LUNS is not set CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING=y From config-2.4.25-1-686: # # SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM) # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=m CONFIG_SD_EXTRA_DEVS=40 CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=m CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR is not set CONFIG_SR_EXTRA_DEVS=2 CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SCH=m CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=m # # Some SCSI devices (e.g. CD jukebox) support multiple LUNs # # CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG_QUEUES is not set CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING=y What am I missing? -- Best Regards, mds mds resource 877.596.8237 - Dare to fix things before they break . . . - Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we think we know.
