by Hello
I have a PC with a ASUS P2B-S motherboard (400MHz).
This have a built in Adaptec AIC-7890 controller.
On this SCSI bus is connected a HP SureStore T4i tape, addr 4.
I have installed Solaris x86 ver. 2.6 on this system
and also the latest driver 3 update.
However, the Solaris can not find the HP SureStore T4 tape.
The /etc/driver_aliases do not have an entry for
the Adaptec AIC-7890 (but the 7891?). It does not
help to manually add a line for the AIC-7890.
The #touch /reconfigure make it to reconfigure, but the T4 tape
drive is not found. The DOS program PRTPCI.exe could not
find the SCSI host adapter.
Running the Configuration Assistant it reporting having a SCSI Host
adapter
and it is shown here as:
----------------------------------
PCI: 9005 , f-class
SCSI bus controller
bus 0, device 6, function 0
Port: D000-D0FFF
IRQ 10
MEMORY : E1000000-E1000FFF
-------------------------------------
It dos NOT report any collisions etc..
However the HP SureStore T4i tape is not found.
The tape drive works OK in Windows 95 on this PC.
Do someone out there know what could be wrong ?
Is the answer that Solaris 2.6 x86 does not yet support the AIC-7890
SCSI chip ?
