Or should I look > for IRQ conflicts/DMA conflicts/hardware problems? It will work. I was running two ide disks and a scsi hard drive (plus scsi tape) under 1.1.5.1 for a while. Its now running under NetBSD 1.0 and has no problems there either. I'm using a standard IDE paddle card, and a 1542C at dma 5, irq 10, port 0x330 (all standard locations). The IDE drives were a WDC2250 and some Seagate 130 meg disk. The SCSI is a Micropolis 4110. > If 1.1.5.1 will run both, I'll go back and try again to get the > exact text of the error message (possibly over the holiday break). alex
