- Does anybody know whether LINUX supports an ATBUS harddisk together with
- an ADAPTEC 1542 B and a SYQUEST for example.
- I have setup MS-DOS 5.0 at the PC and I need the ADAPTEC and the SYSQUEST
- under DOS, but more space for LINUX would not be too bad also.
- But if I put the ADAPTEC board into the PC and connect the SYQUEST, the
- system hung if in booting sequence for LINUX you can read:
- SCSI host detected or so.
- The LED on the ADAPTEC board in on at this moment.
- Problems on my system:
- I cannot run LINUX from the ATBUS harddisk yet (problems with doinstall, with
- the new bootdisk I get a cold reset with memory test, or system stops with
- a general protection failure, the different errors occured, after I had chosen
- to install whole base system or base and X 11.
- Are there running systems from the IDE-harddisk with an extra ADAPTEC ?
- Probably another problem on my system: A ARTISOFT (Lantastic)
- Ethernet-Adapter is plugged in also. (IRQ 10, ADAPTEC is on default (IRQ 11)
