and had good success, so read on!
When you are prompted for boot parameters in the initial setup, enter
the following substituting the correct values for IOPORT, IRQ and
SCSI-ID:
aha152x=IOPORT,IRQ,SCSI-ID,1
Possible IOPORT values: 0x140, 0x340 (default)
Possible IRQ values: 9, 10, 11 (default), 12
Possible SCSI-ID: 7 (default)
Disconect SCSI Devices: 1
My boot parameters were:
aha152x=0x140,11,7,1
During the LILO configuration setup, you will prompted to enter any
additional parameters. Re-enter the parameters you used during the
initial setup. These will then get entered in /etc/lilo.conf.
Good luck. If you have any problems, e-mail me.
