It should be supported by the `sea' driver. Try booting with the `-c' option and see if you can make either sea0 or sea1 match the hardware settings of the controller. (sea == Seagate, compatible to Seagate ST-01 dumb controllers) Well, i'm not sure if the ST-01 class controllers will support all SCSI devices. They are primarily intented to be a cheap hook for a SCSI to DOS C: and D: hard disk mapping. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
