Re: Installation problem with tyan mainboard
Soory if I missed those details, but... which Tyan motherboard are we talking
about and which scsi drivers dont work ?
I am just asking cause I am running Tyans K8S Pro (S2882) with the Adaptec
7902W happily ever after ;-) (5 machines of them)
I use kernel 2.6.9.9.
I have made some install notes for those who think Suse or Red Hat etc
installs easier. Actually Debian (Sid) runs much more stable than Suse 9.2
My notes are here :

BTW: Note that Suse 9.2 s kernel wont boot with anything than more 4GB Memory
by default.
Best regards
