This seems to have fixed it. I haven't done extensive testing yet, but I was able to tar the Slackware installer into my home directory, untar that, and untar a gzipped file from that so I can read a lot of data and not have it be corrupted. I'm afraid I don't have anything that will give it a real workout, just a zip drive and a 4xCD burner. I'll try to burn a CD. What I did to get my Adaptec APA-1480 SlimSCSI Cardbus card working: - Apply the 2.4.0-test1-ac7 patch to linux 2.4.0-test1 - Apply the patch I mentioned in my earlier message, that turns on the PCI expansion ROM or some such thing (I don't know much about PCI). You'll find this in the linux-kernel archives under "Can't recognize Adaptec APA-1480 under 2.4.0-test1-ac4" - replace linux/drivers/scsi/scsi* with the unpatched originals from test1 (without any of the -ac patches). If you want me to try this with various patch versions to see at which points it breaks and works I can do that. Mike crawford@goingware.com > > On Fri, Jun 02, 2000 at 01:18:50PM -0700, Michael D.
