I don't know if the Y series works like this (i.e. PCI card + | cable to connect a seperate box to the PCI card)... The (ISA) 16Ye's are almost the same. If there are no ports connected, you don't find the card at all. The 16Ye's have a SCSI-2 cable to a bunch of ports. I don't know about the PCI ones, and I don't know about the 8-way octopus cable ones. The new cyclades driver is required for the SM MkII pods, not for the card AFAIK. There also seems to be weirdness if you have an old serial pod, and a new serial pod on the same card. -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| P:+61 7 3870 0066 | Andrew The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | F:+61 7 3870 4477 | Milton ACN: 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 |72 Col .Sig PO Box 837 Indooroopilly QLD 4068 |akm@theinternet.com.au|Specialist To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
