Linux Device Driver Installation

Copyright © 1993–2001 by LSI Logic Corporation. All rights reserved.

Integrity checking (Domain Validation) is enabled but a device
behaves badly. How can it be disabled?

Disable integrity checking by following these steps:

Step 1.

To disable integrity checking, type at the prompt:

#insmod ncr53c8xx "ncr53c8xx=buschk:4"

or

#insmod sym53c8xx "sym53c8xx=buschk:4"

Step 2.

To disable integrity checking when the driver is built into the
kernel, type at the

lilo

prompt:

lilo: linux root=/dev/hda2 ncr53c8xx=buschk:4

or

lilo: linux root=/dev/hda2 sym53c8xx=buschk:4

where

hda2

is the root partition.

The C1010 boards are shipped with the default speed set to Ultra2.

To run at Ultra160 speeds, update the sync speed in the configuration
(set to 80) and change the setting in NVRAM. If necessary, use the
command line arguments

nvram:7

,

sync:9

, and

wide:1

to the setup

command; for example with

insmod

, type at the prompt:

#insmod sym53c8xx "sym53c8xx=nvram:7 wide:1 sync:9"
