I swear -- I have no luck with SCSI cards. First the NCR PCI card didn't work, and now I'm having trouble with the Buslogic VLB card. (Yes, I have one of those maddening VLB/PCI 486 motherboards.) I'm getting further this time, though. Here's the configuration: Port 330, IRQ 12, BIOS disabled, synch negotiation disabled The card is correctly probed at boot time. I have two drives on the SCSI chain, a Quantum ELS127S, and a Quantum LT730S. The boot-time probe correctly identifies both drives. The problem arises the first time I try to access one of the disks. Here's an extract from /var/log/messages: Jan 12 19:43:30 ositos kernel: bt0: Try to abort Jan 12 19:43:32 ositos kernel: bt0: Abort Operation has timed out Jan 12 19:43:42 ositos kernel: bt0: Try to abort Jan 12 19:43:44 ositos kernel: bt0: Abort Operation has timed out Jan 12 19:45:24 ositos kernel: bt0: Try to abort Jan 12 19:45:26 ositos kernel: bt0: Abort Operation has timed out Jan 12 19:45:31 ositos kernel: bt0: Try to abort Jan 12 19:45:33 ositos kernel: bt0: Abort Operation has timed out Any suggestions? Do I have something misconfigured? Do I just have a bum motherboard? Should I just stick to IDE :-)? Carl Fongheiser cmf@ins.infonet.net
