You best beat for stable operation would be to get a _real_ adaptec 1542CF. > Also, is there any interest in a driver for the IN-2000? Nope, that is a PIO mode, zero intelegent, no bus master scsi controller. Works fine for DOS, but makes a very poor unix controller. > (Does anyone else here use one?)
