Yes, I got a bootable that will work with aha154xA scsi cards. No, you cannot ftp it from me. Mail me and tell me where I can ftp it to you. I will send both a bootable dist.fs and the modified as.c code. I do not at present have code for asboot and bootas, you will have to save these images from the floppy image. If tour mail bounces, try me at tha@ulrik.uio.no. -- Tore Haraldsen
