Hi all,
I have not been able to find anything useful on the problem described
below. I could really use some ideas or suggestions.
The one thing I have not tried is to build the driver based on the 3ware
source, but I have not had much luck building a kernel that works :( I'm
willing to try that again if I can get some detailed steps to do that,
maybe based on modifying the existing linux-image-2.6.15-1-em64t-p4-smp
and config.
Thanks,
-Steve

Running the sid linux-image-2.6.15-1-em64t-p4-smp
Have the ATAPI CDROM working :)
Recognizing the 3ware 9550 raid card.
Have built an ext3 filesystem and it mounts and read writes seem to be
fine.
BUT there is a problem on reboot.
The fsck check of the /dev/sdb1 fails to read the superblock and
throws the boot process into maintenance mode. The device is fine and
fsck reports that it is clean. and a ^D whether I fsck it or not
brings up the system and the disk is fine.
I seems like it might be a timing problem in that the array is not
fully online before the system goes to check it. Or I didn't do
something right when I partitioned and made the filesystem.
I had a similar problem and found putting libata and the sata drivers in
/etc/modules solved the problem.
Regards
Clive
