Description Need Real Name 2002-08-08 23:23:32 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.0.0-10; Linux)

Description of problem:
After installing using solution from 
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57501

Upon inital system boot, system hangs after "Detecting Adaptec I2O RAID Controllers"

After that, it says it found the card but never goes beyond that.  I also tried using the updates and driver disk from
http://people.redhat.com/tcallawa/dpt/

with no success.  

Installing 7.3 is not an option.

Thanks, 
  Chris Cook

I passed this issue over to Adaptec, I suspect either bad hardware/firmware
personally, since I've had several reports of successful 7.2 installs with the
2100S cards. It may also be a driver/motherboard interaction issue.

Chris, you might want to try moving it to a different PCI slot.

Comment 4 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:39:49 UTC

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/
