Asus P2B-S MB (with SCSI), 128MB PC100 ECC, P-II 400. Two IBM DDRS 9G SCSI HD's. No IDE drives other than an IDE ZIP (not detected by NT or FreeBSD, its on the 2nd IDE bus, as a slave, with no master. Really need to fix that.) My NT 4.0 SP1 CDROM didn't recognize the SCSI, not too suprised. Then fed it the Asus/Adaptec driver disk. Installed drivers. Still didn't find any HD's. Noticed the driver disk was version 3.01 while 3.02 was at the Asus site. That didn't do any different. However, the 3.2-RELEASE CDROM booted (via ATAPI CDROM) and was perfectly happy to install. Let it do "make buildworlds" most all day Friday. About 70 minutes per iteration, about 10 minutes to "rm -rf /usr/obj/*; chflags -R noschg /usr/obj; rm -rf /usr/obj/*" I find it faster to do it in the above order with the extra rm in front. This way the chflags operation only has to walk the tree thru the files that need chflag'ing. Wrote a "compatible" partition table to the disks in sysinstall hoping that would be the thing for NT to find the drives. Nope. Its time to bother Asus and the MB vendor. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
