- The banner produced by the driver should have been of the form below:
-
- bt0 reading board settings,
- **bt0 probing for scsi devices**
- dev0,lu0: type 0(direct),fixed 'SEAGATE ST41651 6488' scsi2
- sd0: 1342MB, cyls 2107, heads 15, secs 87, bytes/sec 512
- dev5,lu0: type 1(sequential),removable 'WangDAT Model 1300 02.4' scsi2
- st0: scsi tape drive, 0 blocks of 512 bytes
- bt0 at 0x330 irq 11 on isa
-
- does that agree with what you are seeing?
-
- >
- >bt0:0 device timed out
-
- this indicates that an expected interrupt did not arrive.
-
- >bt0:0 not taking commands
- The driver discovered that the reason the command didn't complete
- was because the board never took in the last command.

- It will use more when things get busier!

- that is what the line "bt0:0 not taking commands" is saying.

- if you can find someone with internet access, you can try the kernel
- running on ref.tfs.com
- (there are japanese users, some may be close to you)
