I risked making a fool of myself, but I really have to ask this.

I recently installed 3.2-stable on a brand new Compaq Proliant 400.
It came with a built-in onboard SCSI, an Integrated Single Channel
Wide-Ultra2 SCSI controller  ( really a Symbios 53c895 )

I have a Vikings II 9.1s connected to this controller.
All the default settings has been turned OFF, ie. ID=0,
TP is OFF, SE is OFF.

The SCSI cable is the same that came with the server, it has a
terminator attached to the end.  I think it is a correct cable.

I know I have to make sure that I'm using LVD, but I have no idea
how to configure it.  That's no configuration program from the
SCSI controller at all.

I am expecting a 80MB/s trasnfer rate which I am not gettings,
and I have run out of ideas/ things to try.  Perhaps
some kind soul who have knwoledge of similar setup can throw me
some rope here.

TIA.

the relevant dmesg output follows:

>ncr0: <ncr 53c895 fast40 wide scsi> rev 0x02 int a irq 11 on pci2.4.0

>da0 at ncr0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
