There seems to be a version at: ftp://ftp.dialnet.net/pub/linux/aic7xxx/testing/ but I don't have access to a C compiler because I need the driver to install the O/S. I'm trying to install Slackware 3.5 on a new Dell PowerEdge Server 2300. It has an on-board AIC-7890 (for the hard-disk) and AIC-7860 (for the CD-Rom) on booting Slackware using the aha2x4x.s image. It detects the AIC-7860 and the CD-ROM but can't detect the AIC-7890 and harddisk. The harddisk is on SCSI No. # 0. It's a Seagate ST34572wC Ultra2-SE The errors I get are in the attached file (errors.txt) Please help - I'd be very greatful if you could.
