Re: [Xen-users] xen 3.0 boot problem

[Stephan Böni <boeni@xxxxxx>]

It works fine with Xen 2.0. The qla2300 compatible cards are the most
used fibre channel host bus adapter to attach a SAN. Without this
driver you can say goodbye to a lot SAN solutions.

We have some IBM systems with this adapter in our office, because
IBM uses the QLogic 2312 chipset as default too. If i can help to
determine the bug, i will do anything. (But my programming knowledge
is not so big. Therefore i need a lot of help.)
