Followups to comp.unix.i386. Don't know yet... I'm gonna try next week. I already gave it a (non-succeeding) try. According to my vendor you _have_ to jumper the 'secondary' SCSI drive to DMA chan. 6, as ISC will use this for any secondary SCSI no matter what type the primary controller is. As I said - I'll try next week and then I'll inform you about the correctness of this theory. cheers Wiljo -- snail-mail: | e-mail: | tel. lines: | | Wiljo Heinen | wiljo@freesid.ruhr.sub.org | voice: +49-231-162837 Rittershausstr. 55 | wheinen@ipkama.ka.sub.org | fax: +49-231-140192
