Let me know if you have any trouble to get this set up! } Stefan, if only we had some docs on the PCI chipsets, we could try to } help with this situation. Could you spare any docs? Well, there are a number of things I REALLY would love to do currently, but can't for lack of spare time :( There is an installation manuall being reviewed currently, and I want to get some PCI information in, but I don't know, whether I will have time to contribute something. There is no lack of documentation on PCI chipsets, IMHO, but a lack of documentation of general PCI concepts (e.g. the PCI interrupt routing, there have been a number of wrong advices floating around, and it is not that complex, just different than on the ISA bus ...). Anyway, please try to specify an IRQ for the PCI slot of your Adaptec card. It must be different from any interrupt used for ISA cards, but several PCI cards may share one IRQ. The boot message should contain that IRQ number, and then you should be set ...
