You use the "sea" controller, which used to work under 2.0 (after a fashion). I had to turn off BLIND_TRANSFER to get it to work with a single drive, and #define SEANOMSGS 1 to get it to work OK with 2 drives. I don't believe the -current driver will work. It wedges during boot up with mine. If you tell me where you have the IRQ and memory address is, along with your other hardware addresses, I could create a kernel for you. Stephen
