Both of them have 7895 chips onboard. That would explain why you're seeing two interrupts assigned for the board. Can you look on the board itself and find out: - how many large Adaptec chips are on it - What the markings/model numbers are on those chips. > Further way down in the probe, it shows > aha0 not found at 0x330.. That driver is for the Adaptec 154x series of ISA controllers.
