I tried to install IBM OS/2 version 1.3 on a 33 MHz Northgate Elegance
system equipped with an Adaptec AHA1542B controller, but the install
program could not detect the hard drive.  OS/2 is supposed to work
with SCSI devices (recent PS/2 machines use SCSI drives), but
apparently the BIOS extensions supplied by Adaptec were not recognized
by OS/2's installation routines.

Has anyone else has had this problem and is there a work around for
it?  If there is a work around, are there more problems or limitations 
that I might encounter after working around this glitch?  Thanks
in advance for any assistance.
