Thank you very match for your reply.
I tried to test at once with i2opci.c of 2.2.15 once again.
MegaRaid type is Express 100 (Series 466WS) Dell OEM version (PERC2/SC)
on DELL PowerEdge.
System BIOS and MegaRaid BIOS have no I2O settings.
The kernel stopped when I still loaded a module of megaraid.
Is semantics of "The current code" a newer thing?
In the near future, I try to test it with a new Dell server with I2O PCI
bus and MegaRaid.
