When the system boots, during the POST, the SCSI BIOS correctly prints to the screen info on all the attached SCSI drives. Linux and DOS 5 will install and run on the drives. The INSTALL_NOTE file says the Ultrastor 14f controller is a supported adapter. cgd has confirmed that the driver is in both kernel-copy boot floppies. On booting the kc-aha floppy, I see: = = uha0 reading board settings, dma=5 int=11 id=7 = uha0 at 0x330-0x337 irq 11 drq 5 on isa = and no other messages related to the adapter or the scsi drives. After answering the install questions, the install attempts to setup the drive and I see: = = OK! Here we go... = = labelling disk...disklabel: /dev/rsd0d: Device not configured = done. I received mail from Theo Deraadt of the netbsd-help mailing list who says: | None of us have an uha controller, so it is slightly possible that the | driver is broken at the moment for that controller. I don't know at the | moment how to help you further, wish I could, sorry. I would try to use 386BSD, but I can't find any boot floppy that supports the Ultrastor 14f controller, even though drivers for that controller are available. Can anyone be of any help? Thanks.. -- Chuck <ckane@ece.uiuc.edu>
