In regard of the e-mail sent on Jul/16/04 about the 3Ware 9500S. Has anyone experienced/solved this issue ?? I'm having a similar problem, I already have the system installed on a separate disk, now I want to make the filesystem on the RAID partition (using 3Ware 9500S-8). First I had the problem that the card will keep resetting after continous timeouts whenever I tried loading the module (compiled from source, in up-mode, driver v.9.2 from 3Ware's website). The solution to this was to disable APIC on the motherboard (or boot linux without APIC support). So, now the module loads ok (I've tried SMP and ENT versions, I'm using kernel 2.4.21-15.0.4-ELsmp). But the timeout and reset problem start happening again when I try to create the filesystem on the RAID partition. I can cancel the mkfs operation, but then I get a kernel panic if I try to unload the module (rmmod 3w-9xxx), just like the problem that the previous poster had. Any ideas or input would be appreciated. David
