I also have an Adaptec 1505/1515 and have had lot's of trouble with it. (spontaneous Panic: Can't mount root messages) It is not in the supported hardware list. My system also tries to use aic0 on IRQ 11 to try and use the card. I think it must be on IRQ 11 with this driver. Can someone suggest a SCSI card that works well in a 486, non PCI machine for me? -- from Dave Blizzard VE3SVL ----------------
