I am having a problem mounting multiple drives on my Unix Box. I use a
Digital Celebris XL590 that has a built in NCR SCSI card. Inside the
machine I have a 1.2 gig & a 9 gig drive. Externally I have a 9 gig in
it's own case then four 3 gig drive in a disk tower. All of these drives
are connected, but if I mount more than one of the 3 gig drives in the
tower, the machine panic faults within 15 minutes and I have to remove the
extra drive from the /etc/fstab table, before it will properly come back
online. Any suggestion out there?
