Have you also downloaded and applied the kernel patches from Randall Hopper's site? If so, did all the patches apply without error? Could we see your complete kernel configuration file? Do you have any other devices in your configuration that could be causing an IRQ/DRQ conflict? Surely, there's an explanation as to why you're having problems. Hopefully, we'll be able to find it. -- Conrad Sabatier <conrads@neosoft.com> "I'm a creationist; I refuse to believe that I could have evolved from man."
