by I have a 486 configured with 8 MBytes RAM, a 425 MB IDE Drive and a 1050
MB SCSI Drive. I have an Always Technology IN-2000 Host Adapter
configured to the default settings. The SCSI Drive is configured as
device 0. Everything is happy in DOS and Windows and the system is able
to access both drives. The problem is that I can't get LINUX to even
acknowledge the presense of the IN-2000 host adapter. It finds the IDE
drive fine, but that is where I have all of my DOS and Windows Stuff and
I'd really like to install the LINUX on the SCSI drive.
After LINUX starts the boot process, there is a point at which it
identifies what it found. I get SCSI host adapters = 0, hard drives = 0
tape drives = 0, or something like that.
I've tried different addresses, and interupts for the Host adapter and
different device ID's for the drive. DOS and Windows are happy with many
combinations, but LINUX doesn't seem to like any of them.
Does anyone have any suggestions? What am I missing?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks,
Tom Jones
