Description Malcolm Windham 2004-02-24 05:49:43 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET 
CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Description of problem:
Latest intel bios(14.3). Hangs with aic7xxx or old_aic7xxx. Installed 
to ide but when checking for new hardware on boot it appears scsi 
controller in loop, hd access on long period then off briefly. Prior 
to detect hardware disk io led seems to follow sounds of ide. Tried 
various apic noprobe recommendations, no solution. Dual processor P2.
I would like method/fix to get embedded aic7896 scsi to work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.22

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Insert Fedora 1 core disk (Sams Unleashed DVD)
2. try to install with default and various noprobe, apic, new/old 
aic7xxx permutations
3.
    

Actual Results:  Cicumvented hang by adding ide drive and installing 
to it, scsi drives not fdiskable. 

Expected Results:  Would like to install default on these boards to 
scsi drives if desired.

Additional info:

This seems to have been beaten about for some time without definitive 
solution.
