OpenSUSE Install :: Scsi RAM-DVD Not Recognised?
Mar 15, 2011
I installed OpenSuse 11.4 (x86_64) a couple of days ago.One of my Drives a PC-DVD RAM (Creative) is not working. This worked under 11.3.The SCSI drive is connected to a PCI/SCSI adapter (AHA-2904).The message I see at boot is: ata_id[443]HDIO_GET_IDENTITY FAILED /dev/sr1I also see the message ata_piix not found, and can not find an option in the kernel
to provide this.his causes the system to wait a long time and slows down boot dramatically

I've just put together a Centos 5.2 system using an old Future Domain SCSI card which would allow me to hook up an external DAT drive. On its BIOS screen it advertises itself as an AHA-2920 which should be handled by the aic7xxx module. However, the module doesn't even get loaded unless I force it in /etc/rc.modules and even then it doesn't pick up the card.

i m facing same error in most of the HCL servers. the problem is that it throws error while booting and sometimes not throws error. the error is :-
Feb 13 13:17:25 fe13s kernel: Adapter 0: Bus A: The SCSI controller was reset due to SCSI BUS noise or an invalid signal. Check cables, termination, termpower, LVDS operation, etc.
Feb 13 13:17:30 fe13s kernel: Adapter 0: Bus B: The SCSI controller successfully recovered from a SCSI BUS issue. The issue may still be present on the BUS. Check cables, termination, termpower, LVDS operation, etc
Feb 13 13:29:15 fe13s kernel: Adapter 0: Bus B: The SCSI controller successfully recovered from a SCSI BUS issue. The issue may still be present on the BUS. Check cables, termination, termpower, LVDS operation, etc

In my understanding, the way /proc/scsi/scsi gets populated, /proc/paritions also gets populated in the same fashion. i.e. the description for first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi can be seen in the first entry of /proc/partitions and same for rest.
So, With this assumption, in my project, I used to relate first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi with first entry of /proc/partitions to get its total size and same for all entries.
But, I observed some differences in following scenario, where
1) The first 4 entries in /proc/scsi/scsi are SAN luns attached to my system and for which the actual device names in /dev/ are sda,sdb,sdc and sdd.
2) The last 4 entries are the internal HDDs on same system. In /dev/, their respective device names are sde,sdf,sdg & sdh.
(Output attached at end of the thread)
But in /proc/partitions, the device order is different.
You can see their respective sizes in /proc/partition output as well.
So, my question is, in this particular scenario, I can't relate the first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi with first entry of /proc/partition. i.e. scsi0:00:00:00 is not /dev/sde, because it is actually /dev/sda.
It seems that my assumption is wrong in this scenario.
Is there any way or mechanism to figure out actual device name for an entry in /proc/scsi/scsi in /dev/ directory?
How can my application should relate /proc/scsi/scsi entries with their respective device names and sizes?

When I enter "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" I'm returned with "cat: /proc/scsi/scsi: No such file or directory". I've tried this on two different installs on two different machines.

Some of our workstations have LTO's attached and they seem to drop off every now and again, the only thing which picks them up again (besides a reboot) is the famous rescan-scsi-bus script from here
The thing is that I'd like non-root users to be able to run this script, which in turn needs root to /proc/scsi/scsi

My computer has two optical disk drives but SUSE only recognises the newer one which is an NEC DVD/RW drive. The other one is older and both were recognised when I had Windows 7 on this computer

I'm reasonably noob to Linux but now seriously confused Installing F11 onto a Dell Precision 490, 4GB RAM and 250GB WD2500YS. I get through to drive partitioning and there is no drive listed. Especially odd as the drive is running F10 quite happily. Reconnect a Seagate Barracuda 500GB and restart, this is seen and is the only drive listed even though it is SATA1 not SATA0. Boot the F10 installation DVD and that recognises both drives! I have tried both AHCI and ATA modes with the same results. Can anyone point me in the right direction or do I go out and get another Seagate drive, no I can't use the existing one.

Does Debian have any particular tools or nuances for installing new hardware? I saw some stuff on Ubuntu which is related... but you know.
The dmesg file shows that it's being recognized, but I don't think it's actually being used (i.e. there is no driver installed). This is what's in the dmesg file:
Code:
[ 1.384634] Block layer SCSI generic (bsg) driver version 0.4 loaded (major 253)
[ 1.855496] SCSI subsystem initialized
[ 5.146598] scsi0 : ioc0: LSI53C1020A A1, FwRev=01032700h, Ports=1, MaxQ=255, IRQ=16
[Code]....
Unless someone has already compiled a driver for Debian Lenny for this hardware, I'm going to have to compile my own I guess. The driver package seems to come with something called mptlinux-4.00.43.00-src.tar.gz which I'm guessing can be compiled for any Linux, but looking at the instructions, it's pretty much beyond me how to get started. It talks about using kernel source to build a module and such and such.

First off I'd like to say I'm very new to Ubuntu, so I'm still trying to learn.I have a K8 motherboard with an adaptec U320 SCSI card with RAID ability.To that card I connected two 15k RPM 35 GB Maxtor SCSI drives.For some reason I'm not able to install Ubuntu 9.10 onto these drives with both drives in RAID 0.With both drives separately configured Ubuntu doesn't even see them.I have by the way run Windows XP and 2000 succesfully on these drives in Raid 0 configuration.I set up the array in the card's bios as bootable with write cache enabled.The system's bios sees the array as the array to boot from.Ubuntu (both standard and alternate) sees the array and I have tried to install Ubuntu on it by manually partitioning it or having me guide it with or without LVM.I tend to delete and rebuild the array between attempts so I have a clean slate to start from every time I try.
I have no other drives (except the CD of course) installed on this computer.The whole installation goes very well untill the end where I get a message that it could not install the boot loader (grub?).Every single time I've tried to install Ubuntu in all sorts of ways onto my RAID 0 array I have run into problems installing that boot loader, and I've tried that card and those disks in another computer as well.Tomorrow I'd like to try to manually set up the partitions with a small /boot partition on a standard hard drive with / on the array, but if somebody please has any idea's on how I might get it working without having to rely on another hard disk (which might not even work of course)

Can an unattended Kickstart support both IDE (hda) and SCSI (sda)? The goal is to to create a new virtual machine from scratch. What I have works for Parallels in which a new VM defaults to emulate an IDE hard disk. It does not work for VMware Workstation which defaults to emulate a SCSI disk.
The relevant Kickstart section: bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=hda --append="rhgb quiet"
clearpart --all --initlabel --linux --drives=hda
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --ondisk=hda
part pv.2 --size=0 --grow --ondisk=hda
volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=32768 pv.2
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024 --grow
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024 --grow --maxsize=2048
Can the Kickstart file be made to not care what drive type is there, or conditionally handle either type?

I did an installation of SUSE 11.2 on a new SCSI hard drive. Keeping the old hard drive separate. I remembered there was some info on the old hard drive I wanted.
I added this to the system and mounted a partition. I then copied the data over. Then I umounted the partition rebooted the machine and removed the hard drive. However the machine will now not boot without this hard drive even though its not mounted. Not sure what the error message im given means I think it could be trying to fchk it.Do I need to do something more like remove /dev/sdd ?

I have successfully setup a FOG server to image my Windows clients, so I have tftp, pxe and anything else related to booting to a pxe server setup and rocking. What I'm trying to do now, is use the CentOS net install files to setup CentOS on an old server with no USB boot option, and a broken scsi cdrom drive (it's a Dell PowerEdge 2400, with a single PIII 733 and 1.25GB ram).
Using the FOG Projects gparted wiki entry (adding gparted to the pxe boot menu) I was actually successfully able to pull the net install files over to the PE, and install CentOS 5.5 via local ftp server. At first it kept erroring out (I kept picking and choosing individual packages from the package groups), so I thought it may be an issue with the GUI install (the python script kept spitting back errors forcing a reboot). In any case, I finally got through the GUI install, but now I need / want to know how to force a text mode install.
[Code]....
the bolded "append" line is where I thought I could force the text mode install script, but that didn't work. The vmlinuz and initrd.img files were both pulled form the net install iso, NOT the livecd. Would that have made a difference? If not, what / where / how should I force the text mode install script?

I am trying to install Ubuntu ver.10.10 server on HP DL360 with 2 internal 36GB untra3 scsi drives. The installations seems to have gone fine but upon booting, the OS is stoping at the BusyBox menu with initramfs prompt. None of my boot or root filesystems is mounted here so I can not go further. I've searched all over the net for answers but nothing seems to work.

usb devices inserted after bootup aren't being automounted and opened. For the life of me, after much googling, I can't get them to work. the ehci_hcd, uhci_hcd and ohci_hcd modules are not loaded, but those were from some old posts, and I don't know how relevant they are to me.But if I insert the usb before startup, ubuntu now recognises and automounts any usb device.before the recent kernel update ( **.2 my wifi dongle would be recognised. but after,it seems as it too isn't being recognised.for the meantime, I am keeping a small unused usb device plugged in the back of the tower.

I just installed the latest Ubuntu on my laptop. WEP key is not accepted when connecting to wireless even I using the correct key. When I closed the WEP, I able to connect to the Internet. I had search for a long time. Seems like linux always has this kind of problems. WEP key is not recognised due to ASCII or Hex key? How I choose to insert the ASCII or Hex?

I downloaded debian-6.0.1a-ia64-netinst.isoI burned this to a CD using wodimPopped the CD into a new desktop computer, pushed the power button and get the message:Robeet and Select proper Boot deviceor Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a keyI thought it might be something to do with the writing of the CD so I went to a Windows laptop, copied the ISO image over and then wrote the image to another blank CD on this machine. Tried booting this and received the same message.
The new computer will boot from other CDs, as I have an older Windows XP boot disk and that works just fine.What else can be wrong...??? Is the image valid? Has anybody else successfully downloaded and boot from this image? I kind of expect so but I don't know - maybe it's still really new.I have downloaded and installed Debian previously using this method, however back then I was using the i386 image. This time I checked and my cpu and board, the Intel 64 bit architecture should be fine so I don't see why I shouldn't be using this version.

I have a 3g data card(LW272 GSM/WCDMA USB Modem with HSPADataCard) which is a type of multi-mode, 3G modem or card, applicable to 2G/3G networks; but it doesn't get recognised in Ubuntu 9.10. Actually, this device came with a software(for linux too) which makes calls and sms possible simultaneously while surfing. But while installation(from root terminal) i see a repeated trials of connecting to modem but it does not find the device(something wrong in installation), and the interface of the software also shows "No(U) Sim". Anyhow it doesn't bother me much if i m not able to avail the additional services( call and sms), but what i need is to make the modem recognisable so that i could configure the connection.

I have just tried to upgrade my Toshiba Laptop (Satelite X205-S9800) from Fedora 10, which was working correctly, to Fedora 12. During the first boot Fedora 12 does not recognise my Wireless LAN Card and stops (Freezes) in that part of the first boot sequence. I have tried switching the LAN OFF in the Bios and also switching it off(There is an On/Off switch on the Wirless LAN card. Neither of those actions fixed the problem.

apt-get install startxwould sort this out but no joy. I don't seem to actually be able to get anything using apt-getI've tried running apt-setup but the command isn't recognised.I'm sure I'm connected up to the internet (I'm using a wired connection I run dhclient eth0 and check with ifconfig and eth0 seems all happy and connected up). I'm also trying to install mpg321 or mpg123 as it would be nice to have some tunes but I get the same "package not found" error message

Ubuntu version: Karmic Koala (ubuntu 9.10)I've been fiddling arround quite some time with this card. So far i established the following:
1. Card is supported by drivers already available in kernel (v4l, v4l(2)).
2. Card is recognised by Skype as well as by gstreamer. However gstreamer gives me mostly greeen screen when i test it. no propper picture. both found it on video1 (video0 is webcam).
3. I know it is supposed to work well in Linux URL...instructions are for fedora here.
4. there are quite a few tutorial for this card online (even ubuntu), however they are for older version and most of them consist of getting new drivers installed (which are already included with Karmic).
TV Time - blank screen - it is trying to get video from video0 device, which is webcam. i can not set it to use video1 instead as when i click in the menu to change input nothing happens.VLC player - i select use device and set it to V4l or PVR. in both cases the programme itself switches to video0 and turns on my webcam. Nothing else happens. I also installed iv-tv including all necessary libraries and dependancies - as suggested as solution to similar model of card. Didn't change anyhting. it's basically the only thing that is not working yet (most other things i already solved-sort of). I am also interested why the programmes keep switching automaticly to video0 for input when i clearly state to them to use video1?!If this can not be solved can anyone suggest another cheap TV tunner that "just works" in Ubuntu (including remote control)?! I have a big monitor and i think i could use it as TV instead of getting a new TV....

After having some issues with GRUB2 not showing my operating system list, I accidently screwed up my Windows 7 partition by selecting the 'Bootable' checkbox in thePalimpsest(?) Disk Utility.After finding this thread (and the links provided in responses), the problem appears to be the same but, unlike the user in that thread, I was unable the uncheck the Bootable flag after checking it - the partition became totally unrecognised, and the Disk Usage Analyser shows only ~5gb of HDD space in use.
I have no other Windows installation on my hard drive, apart from the Recovery Partition which existed when the PC was bought. The thread I linked to suggested that the bootmgr file may be on the partition of another bootable Windows partition (although I'm not able to get to the PC in question right now, so I'm not 100% sure if the Recovery Partition was flagged as bootable or not)What I need to know is:(1) Is it possible to solve this problem without having to re-install Windows? I don't really have many tools (or much knowledge about all these things) at my disposal, and have no idea how to access the Recovery Partition files in order to see if the required Boot folder and bootmgr file are there.Also, in the file explorer, my Windows 7 partition is no longer visible.
(2) If this is possible, do I require internet access on the PC itself? Ever since I installed Ubuntu, it has been unable to detect proprietary drivers for my network card (whereas the demo from the USB stick I installed Ubuntu with was capable of detecting proprietary drivers)

I have just updated ubuntu from koala to lynx via reloading the synaptic repositories, and after having restarting, to boot into lynx, found that my laptop's keyboard doesnt work, none of the keys are reponding at all, which is odd as I have never had this problem with my laptop before.. I thought this might have been a (semi) common problem with lynx, but after a few searches, have not found anything similar to this problem..Does anybody have any idea what might be the problem here, I can still use the laptop to do things via the mouse and even access the internet and grab text and paste it for things, but obviously would like my keyboard back (i didnt write this on my laptop!) I am 99.9% sure it is not a hardware problem
