Hi there,
I've tried to get Linux on my WD7000 system. I've got no other drives
in my system, so I need to boot off the SCSI. However, both the
bootimage98.1 and the SLS99p2 image don't recognize it ("0 scsi hosts
found"). I've read that SLS's kernel distribution somehow doesn't go
well with SCSI. What exactly does it mean? What do I have to do to
get SLS on my disk?
Also, the SLS kernel sometimes boots with an "unexpected floppy
interrupt" and "Warning: WD8013 board not found" (I don't have one
...). My jumper setting are just as when I bought it (I think):
BIOS at ce00, DMA chan 6, I/O port 350h, IRQ 15h.
Any pointers would be much appreciated, even more so if mailed to
sperber@soir.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de.
Cheers :-> Chipsy
P.S.: IMHO, the FAQ should indicate which kernels include which HD/SCSI
drivers.
