[gentoo-user] Adaptec AIC7xxx kernel problems?

[Brett I. Holcomb]

I'm wondering if it's just me or is anyone else having problems.  I am 
running 2.6.11-r6 with no problems on a system with an Adaptec 39160 card. 
I tried to go to 2.6.12-r6 and r9 but kept getting kernel panics on boot. 
I have another system I'm installing Gentoo on that has an Adaptec 2940uw 
on and since I was using 2005.0 it had 2.6.12 on it and would not boot.  I 
found that on both systems if I build the aic7xxx as a module I can get 
further in the boot process.  I also tried 2005.1 but that is a disaster 
on both systems.  I tell it to noload=aic7xxx and it loads it anyway which 
results in system not running.

Is it just me <G>.
