I receive the following messages on bootup: aha0 at 0x130-0x133 irq 10 drq 0 on isa aha0 waiting for scsi devices to settle (aha0:0:0) timed out adaptor not taking commands.. frozen?! Debugger("aha1542") called aha0: MBO 02 and not 00 (free) To install this devivce, I rebuilt the kernel with the aha0 device enabled, with appropriate irq, drq and other settings. Made modifications to /etc/disktab for the zip disk (as per frequent postings to this newsgroup), rebuilt the kernel and booted.... Any suggestions? Could you refer me to any good FAQ or files on the Net for background info? Richard rjwhite@magi.com
