I have a dual Opteron Tyan S2895 Thunder K8WE motherboard (AMD-8000. Series
chipset + NVIDIA nForce Professional) with
Adaptec 29320A Ultra320 SCSI adapter.
Is there a way to get a stable SL 4.3 x86_64 configuration with this board ?
Suse 10.1 ( 2.6.16.13-4-smp ) seems to work without problems but SL4.3 hangs
during booting or after some time produces
a lot of SCSI errors (see below dmesg output). The SL4.3 Live-CD seems to
have similar problems with this board.
