Description Nitin Dahyabhai 2002-05-27 03:47:03 UTC
I consistently get a kernel panic installing from a CDROM attached
to my aic7895 controller using aic7xxxx driver.  It works fine on
the same machine using an IDE CDROM drive, with or without DMA.

<4>Recovery SCDB completes
<4>Recovery code sleeping
<4>Recovery code awake
<4>aic7xxx_abort returns 0x2002
Kernel panic: Loop 1

This machine previously had Red Hat Linux 7.2 installed onto it without
any problems.

Somewhat better under the Limbo Beta in that it doesn't outright crash,
but the driver was resetting the adapter every few minutes during package
installation.

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
