My controller is busmaster:
00:0b.0 SCSI storage controller: Symbios Logic Inc. (formerly NCR) 53c875 (rev 04) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 80, IRQ 15 I/O ports at d400 Memory at dd800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) Memory at dd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
But problems are still there...
