Subject: [9fans] Fileserver question
Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2001 09:59:26 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.4.33.0108160944360.42204-100000@lucifer.ducksworth.com> (raw)

i am trying to get a fileserver set up and am having a
bit of a problem. seems the scsi card is not being recognized
correctly. i have a PCI based Symbios 53c810alv scsi card. To
check the card i have put it and the attached drive in a linux
box to verify the hardware.

I have built 2 fs kernels. One with Eric's idefs patch and one
without. They both give the same results. Here is what i get
from the boot messages:

sd53c8xx: SYM53C810ALV rev. 0x12 intr=11 command=2000017

sd53c8xx: bios scntl3(03) stest2(00)

...

scsi#0: ncr53c8xx0: port 0 Failed to INIT controller

after i get the command prompt i enter in the config commands
(very simple i might add) and when i issue the 'end' command the
box panics, vomits on the screen and quickly reboots.

here is my plan9.ini for the fs:

bootfile=fd0!dos!9pcfs
ether0=type=ne2000 port=0x340 irq=10 nodummyrr
nvr=fd!0!plan9.nvr
scsi0=type=ncr53c8xx0
