I know how from ARC, how do I do from SRM? I ran the ARCCF.EXE, which was like an RA200RCU.EXE that someone else gave me. The problem I have is I can format the disks, but can't initialize. I was hoping the new firmware would get past this. > > If you need any help, let me know, either privately or via the list. > HELP! > > For the firmware, see > > http://www.lsilogic.com/products/stor_prod/raid/legacy_dac960.html > > in particular, you want (x86 binary!) > > http://www.lsilogic.com/techlib/marketing_docs/storage_stand_prod/raid/gam/fwpl273.exe > Got it. Put on floppy. Ran ARCFL.EXE -d and it tells me there are no Mylex Disk Array Controllers Found. :( Is this why you said you've never gotten it to work on Alpha? Where do we go from here?!
