Hi, I was not able to find out why kernel module eata stopped being
loaded automatically for my DPT 2044W SCSI adaptor, but by creating the
file /etc/modprobe.d/local and adding the line:
alias pci:v00001044d0000A400* eata
then re-running update-initramfs
the eata driver is loaded automatically without any entry for eata in
/etc/modules or /etc/initramfs/modules.
This like a kernel issue, are you totally sure that you did not also
change your kernel?
I had tried several kernels including kernels that had previously worked
with just an eata entry in /etc/modules without getting eata loading
before it was needed to check and mount filesystems on the SCSI disk so
I'm at a loss as to what the actual problem was.
I had also tried earlier versions of other packages related to the
initramdisk creation, again without success.
Thanks for your interest.
Arthur.
