I'm not sure this topic is proper to this forum.

If I missed something, forgive me, please.

I try to enable Adaptec29160N SCSI Driver in OSX 10.4.8.

As you know, Adaptec2940x.kext is usable in OSX 10.4.1.

 

Since 10.4.3, I can not used Adaptec2940, 29160N SCSI Card.

I try to check as followings.

 

################################################## #

 

#kextload -t /System/Library/Extensions/Adaptec29160x.kext

kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/Adaptec29160x.kext has problems:

Validation failures:

{

"Executable file doesn't contain kernel extension code" = true

}

Missing dependencies:

{

"com.apple.iokit.IOSCSIFamily" =

"No valid version of this dependency can be found"

}

################################################## #

 

Any idea, please. :compress:

 

Adaptec29160N Card Information is followings.

No answer so far!

There does not seem to be much hope for us scsi users...

 

I'd love my two 15k harddrives to make my machine fly, but I have been reading a lot and there does not seem to be an answer.

 

If you get something going, please share!

Greets, willi.

Excuse my English plz...

 

Did you try to look for Achitecture of your kexts?

Mine all are PowerPC :). I've tried to use the ones from Darwin 801, which worked with my Adaptec 2940U2W (and with OS X 10.4.1), but it dont load. There were some words about "superclass mismatch"...

As you know, there were two kind of SCSI Controller for PowerPC and IBM.

Firmware is totally different.

That's why something happened...

 

But we need developer for Adaptec SCSI Controller.

 

I think there were a little bit simple of developing.

 

Because of MAC OSX 10.4.1 is already working with Adaptec SCSI Controller.

 

First, I insert dev id in Info.Plist

 

0x00809005

 

Then I try to load as followings.

 

# kextload -t Adaptec29160x.kext

 

 

kernel extension Adaptec29160x.kext has problems:

Validation failures:

{

"Executable file doesn't contain kernel extension code" = true

}

Missing dependencies:

{

"com.apple.iokit.IOSCSIFamily" =

"No valid version of this dependency can be found"

}

 

How could I fixed these message?

 

Anybody know about that?
