Title: LinuxAPUS doesn't recognise my SCSI drives
Post by: cgutjahr on June 06, 2003, 02:50:18 PM

I tried to install LinuxAPUS recently, using the 2.2.10-000927 kernel and the latest version of boothack (both downloaded from the sourceforge site). I used the ramdisk images (both the test image and the RH installer image) from an old AmigaFormat CD.

My Setup:

BlizzPPC 68040/25 + 603/210, SCSI, 32 MB, BlizzardVision, AmigaOS 3.9
Drives: 2x4.2 GB SCSI HD (ID0, ID1), SCSI CD-ROM (ID4, terminated).

According to the supplied readme, the kernel supports my SCSI-host. I prepared two partitions (LNX\00 and SWP\00, as described in the docs) and tried to boot using this commandline:

bootstrap --apus -k vmlinux -r ramdisk.image.gz root=/dev/ram video=pm2fb:mode:800x600-60

But the kernel doesn't recognise my drives: It seems to be searching on the SCSI bus, as I get the following output when the kernel tries to initialise my hardware:

scsi0 : disabled or bad target 0 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 1 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 2 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 3 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 4 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 5 lun 0
scsi0 : disabled or bad target 6 lun 0

When I boot with the RH installer ramdisk image, the installer complains that I don't have any drives connected.

Any hints?

try a newer kernel and if this does not solve anything, get help from the mailing list at apus.
