Hmm ok, port aha0 0x330 irq aha0 11 drq aha0 5 dis ... most of network cards, psm0, mcd0, scd0, matcdc0, wcd0, wcd1, wt0 etc. irq ed0 9 q y > > Also, and I know this is asking a lot, can you tell me what jumpers > you have enabled/disabled on your card?

Grml, lots of work ! :-) Let's try... Pin 1 on the left side J7: :|::::|: (You got it ?) J5: |::::::|:|:|: J6: |:::| J8: :|:|:|:: J9: :|:::|::::|::: The Terminators and the Fuse are installed. Currently this is an "updated" 1542B with the bios version 3.20 to work with the ncr like C/H/S translation. I have another one with version 3.10, the same behavior. There is also no difference, when I use the cards on my old test board with an ST486/80 Processor and only 8 Meg of RAM. > I'm curious, what devices do you have on the scsi bus and how well are > they working? The only connected target is currently an 400MB Disk from Seagate (from a SUN SparcII) the ST1480N. How well working ? Like an very old disk :-) (I can hear the workers in the drive loudly) But the drive is ok and was working flawlessly in the SparcII. It was only replaced because of the noisy spindle motor it has.
