I'm not on questions, but your message was forwarded to me, the author of the Adaptec aic7xxx driver. >Hello ! > >After 2.1.5R was released i tryed to install it on HP Netserver LC with >embedded AIC7770 host adapter. But Userconfig program has no EISA Adaptek cards >in it's list. ( I've issue '-c' at boot prompt, then 'list' command. ) This is to be expected. Userconfig only lists ISA devices and the aic7xxx no longer pertends to be an ISA device as it was in 2.1R. >May be i have very buggy HP computer ( but it runs 2.1.5 with AHA1542 just fin >e ). >Thinking so i try to check 2.1.5 on my robust old computer. It runs 2.1R very >good and >there is original Adaptek 2742 in EISA slot. Absolutely same sympthoms - no a >hc device >in list. Are you sure that ahc0 is not probed at all by the 2.1.5R boot floppy? What slot does 2.1R report your card in? Have you tried disabling the uha0 device vi Userconfig during the 2.1.5R install (it's been known to conflict with the adaptec)? >Main QUESTION : Do you forget to delete AHA2742 from HARDWARE.TXT ? :-) >Or it is only my problem ? It should still be supported. >Thank you. > >Sergey -- Justin T. Gibbs =========================================== FreeBSD: Turning PCs into workstations ===========================================
