Re: aacraid hangs at boot on linux-2.4.27-pre1 20 second delay atlilo prompt makes it succeed

[Jeffrey E. Hundstad]

My previous information was a bit in error.  I incorrectly remembered 
where the system would hang.  It hangs in the place indicated below:

SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
Red Hat/Adaptec aacraid driver (1.1-3 Apr 22 2004 14:34:42)
AAC0: kernel 2.8.4 build 6089
AAC0: monitor 2.8.4 build 6089
AAC0: bios 2.8.0 build 6089
AAC0: serial 635081d3fafaf001
scsi0 : percraid
------ THE SYSTEM HANGS HERE ------
 Vendor: DELL      Model:                   Rev: V1.0
 Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
