SCSI questions
Ok here is the deal, I am doing some contract work for a company that is planing to release it's hardware on RedHat 6.0 I have a test box running that has 3 Symbios SCSI controlers on the system board. I also have 3 PCI SCSI cards also installed (Qlogic 2100,Qlogic 1080,Qlogic 1040) right now I have two kernels, one does not support the Qlogic cards, one that does. when I run the kernel that does not support the Qlogic card this is what I have
/dev/sda1 sda2 sda3
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdc
/dev/sde
/dev/sdf
everything works great, but when I run the kernel that supports the Qlogic card I get this
/dev/sda
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdc
/dev/sde
/dev/sdf
/dev/sdg1 sdg2 sdg3
/dev/sdh
/dev/sdi
/dev/sdj
/dev/sdk
As you can see the new scsi drives want to become devices first before the internal scsi, the only way I can get the system to run is by modifying the fstab to look at sdg instead of sda. I have never worked with such high end stuff before, SO, how can I keep the internal drives first, AND my other problem is I cannot seem to get to any drives past sdg.
TIA
