Kernel 5.4 RC3 is up and running on my AmigaOne X5000 :-)

It was great meeting the A-EON guys @Amiga34 in Neuss Germany.
Hope to see you all next year.

Many thanks for testing the RC3! :-)

Roland,

Without creating a bug report and without testing we can’t solve the issue with your SCSI card.

Cheers,
Christian

Could you then please write us a clear step-by-step guide how to do that correctly? Thank you!

But I still highly doubt it will lead to anything with this kind marginal hardware... Isn't the the same memory bug still unresolved for the RTL 8169 ethernet board (whch is much more common), and that has been known for a long time? And also the non-working Envy24HT driver, which is AFAIK also a known/reported bug?

Roland,

Open a bug report isn't really difficult. They want to know which SCSI card you have and what you have done till now for example the limitation of the RAM.
Please create this bug report. This is important for reporting the issue to the kernel developers. We can work together with the kernel developers. Sometimes they have very fast a solution (patch) but they need a bug report. I don't have this SCSI card so I can't test it or post error messages. They will tell you what they need. Usually they need error messages from the log files. I can create the test kernels for you. Please help us to solve this issue.

Thanks,
Christian
