AIC 7890/1 Ultra 2 under Linux

[Gero Wedemann]

Hi!

I tried to install Linux on my brandnew system:

	o Dual PII on ASUS P2B-D/P2B-DS motherboard
	o IBM DRVS U2W Disk
	o UltraPlex SCSI-CD
	o Yamaha CRW-4416S CD-writer

The SCSI-Controller is on board and properly detected by linux as an
AIC 7890/1 Ultra 2. The three drives are detected properly. After that the
starts and endless loop repeating again and again

scsi: aborting command due to timeout : pid 27, scsi0, channel 0, id3, lun
0 0x00 00 00 00 00 00

It seems that the driver seems to detect a SCSI-drive with ID 3 which is
not on the system (the other drives have the IDs 0-2). I tried booting a
bootdisk from SuSE 6.0, the newer one from their ftp-server and finally a
selfmade bootdisk with Kernel 2.2.3. The later has as far as I see on
Dougs ftp-dirctory the newest driver. All drivers give the same result. 
Playing around with settings of AIC (Ctrl-A ...) does not give any
difference. 

I didn't find anything in the repositry of this list about this. So is
this a bug of the driver?
