The 3ware driver in kernel 2.4.19-0.pp15BOOT doesn't work with my 3ware card. RedHat 7.1, 7.3 and 8.0 are ok. 7.2 has the similar problem. The working one, 2.4.18-18.7.x, has 3ware Storage Controller device driver for Linux v1.02.00.025. PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 01:08.0 PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 00:01.0 scsi0 : Found a 3ware Storage Controller at 0xdfa0, IRQ: 11, P-chip: 8.2 3w-xxxx: scsi0: Command failed: status = 0xc1, flags = 0x15, unit #0. scsi0 : 3ware Storage Controller Vendor: 3ware Model: 3w-xxxx Rev: 1.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00
The problem is /* Tell the firmware we support shutdown notification*/ error = tw_setfeature(tw_dev2, 2, 1, &c); if (error) { printk(KERN_WARNING "3w-xxxx: tw_setfeature(): Error setting features for card %d.\n", j); if (error) { scsi_unregister(host); release_region((tw_dev->tw_pci_dev->resource[0].start), TW_IO_ADDRESS_RANGE); tw_free_device_extension(tw_dev); kfree(tw_dev); numcards--; continue; } } The old driver used to ignore the error.
Have you updated the firmware on the card?
After upgrading to the new firmware, I can install beta3 now.
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/
