Due to various problems,I completely lost that installation. As far as I can tell the hardware is ok. Now I am trying to re-install the kernel again, using the exact same hardware configurations as previous and I get the following message: ncr 0 waiting for scsi devices to settle ncr 0: aborting job... ncr 0:0 ERROR (90:0) (0-df-ff) (0/13) @ (418:43000060) script command = 878b0000 reg: da 00 00 13 47 00 00 1f 31 00 00 df 90 01 08 0a ncr0: restart (fatal error) (ncr0:0:0): COMMAND FAILED (aff@f07cc948) I have tried the various boot floppies as provided on the cd-rom and get the same message.
