First problem; I've just loaded 3.0-release onto my system. I've got a Viking II SCSI drive and a AsusSC-875 (using the NCR driver.) When the kernal detects the drive it says 'can't INIT,' bombs and starts to reboot the system. This system ran 2.6 and 2.7 with the same hardware with no problems. Second problem; (which I think may be part of the first one,) I donwloaded the boot disks, kern.flp and mfsroot.flp made the disks and booted. It comes up and says to put in the disk with mfsroot which I do, but it keeps saying that it can't find /mfsroot I can go past this and it starts to boot. I've redownloaded the boot images and made them on another computer. I look at the disk, and mfsroot.gz is there! Now, the really wierd part of this whole thing; it ran fine the first time I booted, though I did not notice if mfsroot was found or not. I had simply deleted the slices from 2.7, booted off the disk, installed everything fine, rebooted and had the scsi init problem.
