Take a look to /lib/modules/2.4.9-e.12smp/kernel/drivers/addon/ . There are several versions of the Qlogic drivers. You try to load the other drivers at /etc/modules.conf . I can't remember the names, sorry. But they are something like qla_XXX (XXX=numbers) Could be interesting to update a new qla firmware ? Please try the newer qlogic drivers in kernel/drivers/addon/, as suggested above. In the latest AS 2.1 errata (2.4.9-e.27) the driver name is drivers/addon/qla2xxx/qla2200.o This is driver rev. 6.04.01. The driver contains the firmware for the card, so a newer driver often (and in this case, does) contain newer firmware. Re-open this bug if there is still a problem. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: After installing kernel-2.4.9-e.12smp with up2date and making the necessary lilo.conf changes, the system locks up during boot up while loading the qla2200 module. This is the same problem I experienced after installing the e.10smp kernel. The following information I emailed to a RedHat rep after my problem with the previous kernel. It is all still relevant to my current problem with e.12smp: Server is Compaq Proliant 6500 running Advanced Server 2.1 The SAN is an EMC Symmetrix. The HBA is a Qlogic QLA2200F (PCI Fibre Channel ROM BIOS 1.79). The following are the last messages generated before the boot up hangs: ------------- Loading qla2200 module qla2x00: Found VID=1077 DID=2200 SSVID=1077 SSDID=2 scsi0: Found a QLA2200 @ bus 4, device 0x4, irq 10, iobase 0x3000 scsi(0): Configure NVRAM parameters... qla2x00: 64 Bit PCI Addressing Enabled scsi(0): Verifying loaded RISC code... scsi(0): Verifying chip... scsi(0): Waiting for LIP to complete... -------------- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot the system using kernel-2.4.9-e.12smp 2.Observe system hang when "Loading qla2200 module" 3. Actual Results: Hangs so that the power button has to be hit, and the system needs to be booted using the old e.3smp kernel. Expected Results: Qla2200 module should finish loading. Additional info:
