Leave the remote assistant card out, it will cause nothing but trouble. I recently moved divisions and got rid of all my Netserver documentation but I will try to find out what slots share IRQ's with the integrated SCSI. This is a big issue in the Netservers, there was no smart IRQ routing algorithim at the time the LX Pro was released so some slots are forced to share IRQ lines... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew MacIntyre" I think these AIC78xx chips are on PCI bus, not the EISA bus. I think by the time HP released the LX Pro series the EISA bus was for legacy usage only. I did open the fsck'n thing up and pull the one EISA card that was in there, an HP Remote Assistant card. It's gone and it made no difference. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
