You get this under Linux, too :)
I have added ALMOST all drivers we have in the latest package (1.1.92-2).
Of course, not everyone has all hardware. You can safely ignore this if you
don't have a WD-700 SCSI card.
The drivers I removed were ncr scsi drivers. I don't have these, and I
couldn't boot with them enabled. Maybe I even removed too much, if someone
cares he can try to enable one of the four or so I disabled and reboot...
let me know which combination works.
Thanks,
Marcus
