the saga continues. reading all about adding scsi disks I've decided to add one myself...I must have some sort of masochistic tendancies. 486-50 award 3.12 bios 2 ide drives 16meg ram stable system running v2.0 adaptec scsi card 1542 seagate 1 gig hawk kernel recompiled to probe for adaptec which it successfully does. hd recognized and geometry (during bootup) appears ok the fdc wangtek tape drive is now not recognized during bootup (cables checked and appear ok but still may be bad or something as the old kernel now doesn't recognize the tape) errors during initial boot up (bios) that disk drives are wrong (I'm assuming I need to change something on the adaptec card?) both 1.44 floppies recognized and are ok. i disabled error reporting in the bios to get around the above error of the disk drives being wrong and boot then proceeds until: it gets to npx0 on Motherboard. there is hangs and goes no further with a panic of: fatal trap 12 fault virtual address 0x29 instruction pointer 0x8:0xff010ec8d there are a few other lines of error messages. could this be an irq/address problem? what is npx0? and why is it hanging there? thanks, dave
