The box: Intel XXpress-<smth>, 2 AIC7870 chips onboard, EISA bus present.

neither of AICs are recognized at boot. ??? I have the following guesses:

1. neither of the 2 SCSI busses has anything attached yet (disk drives will
   come in a day or two, they ordered drives separately, and no Wide
   drives here to try).

2. SCSI BIOSes for 2 chips aren't configured correctly (just now
   it has "BIOS enabled" in SCSIconfig for the first chip and
   "BIOS disabled" for the second, should be Ok?)

3. 2.2.1 has some problem with two PCI busses? (while both AICs are
   on the second bus??? or on EISA???) What I see at boot
   after the "Probing devices on the pci:0 bus" message:

chip0 <generic PCI bridge (vendor=8086 device=1225 subclass=0)> \
	rev 2 on pci0:0
chip1 <Intel 82375EB PCI-EISA bridge> rev 5 on pci0:14
pci0:15:0: Intel Corporation device=0x0008, class=0xff, subclass=0x00 \
	[no driver assigned]
...^^^^....
	This last message is repeated exactly for all pci0:15:[0-7]
	values.

What I am missing?  Any comments and explanations are appreciated!
Thanks a lot for your help!

Best regards,
