And I'm not on any linux-* list, sorry. The next time I will write to linux-scsi directly. >>On my U30 sparc64 box I get many errors in the system log: >> >>Sep 20 15:28:34 sundown kernel: sym0:0:0:phase change 6-7 11@c7ff7b90 >>resid=6. >>Sep 20 15:28:34 sundown last message repeated 2 times >> >>those did not show up in any other 2.6 kernel up to .8.1 ... > > > When do these show up?

Is the sym2 driver version 2.1.18j in both kernels? Both, at initialization time _and_ normal operation. The 2.6.9-rc2 dmesg does list the same devices - but with "sym0:0:0:phase change 6-7 ..." between the devices beeing detected. I'll rebuild the kernel with the defective scsi driver (I reverted the changes to get a functional system ...) when I'm back in the office in some hours. The 2.6.9-rc2 does contain the domain validation changes, I will take a look if the patch in 2.6.9-rc2 does change the version string if this matters. Have fun, -- Ren?
