by Hello. I recently installed a SCSI card (Adaptec 1515, I think), and am
unable to get it to work under linux. I get a message warning me that
'this release depends on BIOS32.' The kernel then proceeds to identify my
card, and it then tries to scan for devices. It doesn't find any. I have
hooked up a Toray Phasewriter dual -- a CDROM and MO cartrage reader in
one. The device is SCSI ID 4, and this is what I get (among other stuff):
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 4, scsi0, id 4, lun 0
0x00 00 00 00 00 00
aha152x: abort(), SCpnt=0x00238650, QUEUE STATUS:

0x00238650: target=4; lun=0; cmnd=( 0x00 00 00 00 00 00
); residual=256; buffers=0; phase |not issued|; next=0x00000000

INTEN );

I understand that the BIOS32 has to do with PCI, but I have no PCI bus (I've
got ISA), so what is the problem? Attempting to do
mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt
produces
mount: /dev/scd0 is not a block device
despite the fact that ls -l, which produces
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 Jul 18 1994 /dev/scd0
shows that it clearly is.
Any thoughts? Email me or post them.
Thanks in advance.
