How to make Driver module (UP/SMP) of FastTrak , and load it?
How to make and load a Driver module (UP/SMP) for FastTrak
1.) Make sure you have linux kernel source code in /usr/src/linux,
and the gcc version is 3.x by issuing the command -
# gcc -v
2.) Set the Kernel Compiling Environment -
# cd /usr/src/linux/
# make config(or menuconfig/xconfig)
To set kernel config items as you wish as below,
Processor type and features/Processor family
Processor type and features/High Memory Support
Processor type and features/Symmetric multi-processing support
# make dep clean
3.) Go to the directory where PROMISE driver code is located and edit
Makefile.
4.) Choose the parameters in Makefile (default parameter is INDEP586)
ex: INDEP586 for most common case
DEP586 for most common case including module version
SuSE_TB for SuSE linux and Turbolinux,
MDK for Mandrake linux
5.) Issue Linux command to make a FastTrak(UP/SMP) driver: ft3xx.o
#make clean all
6.) Be sure to load scsi_mod.o before “insmod ft3xx.o”.
7.) Copy this module to /lib/modules/2.4.x/kernel/drivers/scsi/
8.) Linux Kernels 2.4.x misidentify Promise ATA-RAID controllers as simple
IDE controllers. This results in the built-in Linux IDE driver trying to
handle the controller, which can prevent the proper FastTrak ATA RAID driver
being loaded. This status is referred to as “IDE issue”.
If you are using Linux kernel 2.4.x, follow installation instructions
a.) through c.).
NOTE: All IDE channels except the first and second one are disabled for the
"IDE issue". It can be enable by removing 'ide2=0 ide3=0 ide4=0 ide5=0
ide6=0 ide7=0 ide8=0 ide9=0' in /etc/lilo.conf or /boot/grub/menu.lst.
a.) “linux ide0=0x1f0,0x3f6,14 ide1=0x170,0x376,15 ide2=0 ide3=0 ide4=0
ide5=0 ide6=0 ide7=0 ide8=0 ide9=0”
b.) If using lilo:
/etc/lilo.conf
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20
label=linux-2.4.20
append="ide0=0x1f0,0x3f6,14 ide1=0x170,0x376,15 ide2=0 ide3=0
ide4=0 ide5=0 ide6=0 ide7=0 ide8=0 ide9=0"
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.20.img
root=/dev/sda1
read-only
c.) If using grub:
/boot/grub/menu.lst
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.20)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20 ro root=/dev/sda1 ide0=0x1f0,0x3f6,14
ide1=0x170,0x376,15 ide2=0 ide3=0 ide4=0 ide5=0 ide6=0 ide7=0 ide8=0 ide9=0
initrd /initrd-2.2.20.img
9.) Issue “cat /proc/scsi/ft3xx/x” (x is a SCSI host number) to get the
RAID array status.
