The adaptor claims to be an Adaptec Ultra/Ultra W BIOS v1.22S2Beta0001 and I have a couple of Wide Seagate Barracudas (2Gb) and a Panasonic CD-ROM attached. Using the standard boot floppy, with "-v" I get the following messages (copied by hand as they flew past!): ahc0: rev 0 int a irq 11 on pci0:11 mapreg[10] type=1 addr=00006000 size=0100 mapreg[14] type=0 addr=f0000000 size=1000 ahc0: reading SEEPROM ahc0: aic7880 Single Channel, SCSI id=7, 1 SCBs ahc0: Reseting Channel A ahc0: Downloading Sequencer Program...done ahc0: Probing Channel A ahc0 waiting for SCSI devices to settle All I get after this is a stream of identical messages: ahc0: ahc_intr - referenced scb no valid during scsiint 0x88 scb(255) Any ideas? I can't get any further than the boot floppy, so I don't have much debugging capability. Aled -- telephone +44 973 207987 O-
