On boot probe it sees the card with the external SCSI cdrom, and the IBM internal HD ( model no. DSAS-3540). However on the debug screen, it shows that both the CDROM and HD time out. The same card was just removed from my old 386, but it was attached to a old CDC HD. Where it ran FreeBSD v2.1 just fine for a long time. I am having this problem with FreeBSD v2.1.6 and Linux (Redhat, Slackware, OpenLinux). It works just fine under Win95. I think it's something very minor that I am not doing for Unix. Does anyone have any ideas ? Paul Griffith - paulg@interlog.com BTW: I do plan to update to FreeBSD v2.2.2 sometime in the future
