I have the same kind of problem with a ST01 controller, only with
two other disks: a Quantum Pro 80S and a Micopolis (I cann't remember
the type right now). Under MSDOS I'm able to use both disk, but
when booting Linux 0.96c-pl2 it does detect the controller but reports
it cann't find any disks (or tapes for that matter).

I toke a look at the autodetect-code in scsi.c, and even enabled some
debug output, but couldn't find anything wrong (at first sight).

I'm really stuck right now. Is there anybody out there who has any
idae what is going wrong ? Every bit of information is welcom !
