I am having problems installing FreeBSD on an Adaptec 1522 SCSI  card. 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 ?

BTW: I do plan to update to FreeBSD v2.2.2 sometime in the future
