AHA2490 & Installing Debian on a machine NOT running linux
Hi.
I'm trying to install Debian on an MSDOS only system.
I down loaded the boot+root+base disks from ftp.inf.tu-dresden.
The linux kernal won't recognise my PCI SCSI Adaptec card.
All the information I have managed to find (SCSI-HOWTO for instance)
requires that I patch the kernal or recomplile it or do something that
requires me to already be running linux! Now that's helpful.
What do I do?
Secondly, I had to do d/l GZIP.EXE and RAWRITE.EXE from a Slackware
install directory. Should I be having to do this?
Hope someone can help me.
Paul.
