When starting installation procedure, after selecting kernel options, probe fails to go through Mylex AcceleRAID 170 SCSI controled RAID disc's. I have 5 Seagate 18GB cheetah drives, and RAID 5 with 4 active drives and one spare one. System stops responding with folowing screen:

Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle
mly0: physical device 0:6  gone
mly0: physical device 0:6  gone
mly0: physical device 0:6  gone


4.3-STABLE version goes on with everything ok.

As far as I remember my previous conversations, this doesn't mean anything
evil. Normally this means that mylex does not recognize intelligent SCSI
backplane as a valid device, so mylex interfacing to CAM layer does give
such errors. You can ignore them. It is more of a hardware problem than of
software.

Cheers,
Domas

Apparantly this is not a real problem, but merely the driver trying 
to attack to something of the backplane, the SAF-TE device.
