Has anyone had any problems installing RH7.1 on a box with Mylex DAC960?? My installation doesn't seem to go ahead of the `loading AIC7xxx drivers' screen. After a long time, I get a SCSI bus timeout in the debug window and the system just freezes. I have a DAC960PG/PJ with an Adaptec SCSI controller and IBM SCSI disks. RH6.2/7.0 have had absolutely no problems. Can you suggest some pointer to troubleshooting? I couldn't find one for this exact problem.
Ok, found the solution. The Adaptec AIC7xxx SCSI bus timeout on 440GX motherboards was a known bug and it has been patched. The boot image of redhat7.1 has been fixed. You can find them here -
