Subject:   installing to a SCSI machine - how to select a disk?

Hi, I've been trying to install BSD to a machine of my housemate. He has
a 486DX2-66, with a scsi-bios (he says) and a PCI-NCR810 scsi card.

The ncr-card is detected, but no drives are detected (the machine gives
an error about the CACHE...)

When I try to use the bootflops I have the following problem:

I can't use fdisk etc, because no drives are detected.
When booting the BIOS says there are no drives. And as he told me, all
the drives are handled by interrupt 10 that translates them into the
right devices... (does this make sense? :-)

So... how can I fdisk a scsi disc???

And can I use his bernoulli disk as well???

Greetings,

Mark Huizer
