SuSE-INTERN:

Symptom:

Loading the Future Domain TMC-16x0-SCSI-Hostadapter module fails (ie. during installation) even though you are absolutely sure that you have given the correct kernel parameters.

fdomain setup_called=1 port_base=<addr>

Reason:

The description of the syntax for the insmod parameters for this kernel module is incorrectly stated in linuxrc and the manual.

Solution:

The correct sytax is:

fdomain=<addr>,<irq>,[<id>]
For example:
fdomain=0x140,11,7
