>From the FM (SCSI-HOWTO):
SCSI hosts that will NEVER work :
Non Adaptec compatible, non NCR53c8xx DTC boards (including the 3270
and 3280).
Also from the SCSI-HOWTO:
5.3. Adaptec 152x, 151x, 1505, 282x, Sound Blaster 16 SCSI, SCSI Pro,
Gigabyte, and other AIC 6260/6360 based products (Standard)
Supported Configurations :
BIOS addresses : 0xd8000, 0xdc000, 0xd0000, 0xd4000, 0xc8000, 0xcc000, 0x
e0000,
0xe4000.
Ports : 0x140, 0x340
IRQs : 9, 10, 11, 12
DMA : not used
IO : port mapped
Autoprobe :
Works with many boards with an installed BIOS. All
other boards, including the Adaptec 1510, and Sound Blaster16 SCSI
must use a kernel command line or compile time override.
Autoprobe Override :
Compile time :
Define PORTBASE, IRQ, SCSI_ID, RECONNECT, PARITY as appropriate, see Defi
nes
kernel command line :
aha152x=<PORTBASE>[,<IRQ>[,<SCSI-ID>[,<RECONNECT>[,<PARITY>]]]]
SCSI-ID is the SCSI ID of the HOST adapter, not of any devices you
have installed on it. Usually, this should be 7.
To force detection at 0x340, IRQ 11, at SCSI-ID 7, allowing
disconnect/reconnect, you would use the following command line option
:
aha152x=0x340,11,7,1
Antiquity Problems, fix by upgrading :
1. The driver fails with VLB boards. There was a timing problem in
kernels older than revision 1.0.5.
Defines :
AUTOCONF : use configuration the controller reports (only 152x)
IRQ : override interrupt channel (9,10,11 or 12) (default 11)
SCSI_ID : override SCSI ID of AIC-6260 (0-7) (default 7)
RECONNECT : override target disconnect/reselect (set to non-zero to
allow, zero to disable)
DONT_SNARF : Don't register ports (pl12 and below)
SKIP_BIOSTEST : Don't test for BIOS signature (AHA-1510 or disabled BIOS
)
PORTBASE : Force port base. Don't try to probe
In other words, if the 1505 is not VL, it seems it should work with the aha152x
driver.
