Hello List! I'm having some issues with my Mac and 3.1r2 Sarge
The install goes swimmingly well, and then during the intial reboot, the system probes for devices, tries to load an aic driver for the unused onboard adaptec controller, and gives us a kernel oops. My strategy to fix this is to use some sort of rescue disk, boot into it, mount the system partition, fix up the modprobe config stuff so it don't probe low-level scsi, and get on with life. I have a considerable amount of linux experience, but I confess that its all been on the pc up till now, and I've been unable to make enough sense of the pre-boot environment to successfully mount the system partition. Interestingly enough, OSX does not load a driver for the adaptec either, SCSI under 'About this Mac' shows 'No information found'. Any direction on any of these points by someone more 'in-the-know' would be highly appreciated.
