    Hi,

    I see the following on my console.

    SCSI host 1 abort (pid 1207191) timed out - resetting
    SCSI bus is being reset for host 1 channel 0.
    ncr53c8xx_reset: pid=1207191 reset_flags=2 serial_number=1207192
    serial_number_at_timeout=1207192
    SCSI host 1 abort (pid 1207201) timed out - resetting
    SCSI bus is being reset for host 1 channel 0.

    The system hangs because of the resets. The problem repeats time by time.

    I run K210 under linux-2.4.23-pa5. The problem appears on different scsi
    controllers, so I hope there are neither controller nor disk problems. This
    are current drivers from /var/log/messages.

    kernel: loop: loaded (max 8 devices)
    kernel: Found i82596 at 0xffd07000, IRQ 87
    kernel: eth0: 82596 at 0xffd07000, 08 00 09 DA 44 88 IRQ 87.
    kernel: 82596.c $Revision: 1.32 $
    kernel: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00

    kernel: ncr53c720-0: ID 7, Fast-10, Parity Checking, Differential
    kernel: zalon_scsi_callback: Zalon vers field is 0x1, IRQ 36
    kernel: ncr53c8xx: 53c720 detected

    kernel: scsi1 : ncr53c8xx-3.4.3b-20010512

    Can it be a bad driver problem? I use Linux Software RAID, is it possible to
    tune some parameters there?

    Many thanks in advance for any help!

    BR,
    Dub
