Can't install debian 1.1
Hi.
I tried to install debian 1.1 with Boot1440.bin from may 28, but there was
a problem:
I have a Pentium with Adaptec AHA2940 SCSI-controller and a Samsung
PLS-31274S SCSI-harddisk.
Here is a part of the output of the boot process:
(...)
aic7xxx: Burstlen = 8DWD, Latency timer = 32PCLKS
aic7xxx: AHA-2940 Ultra Rev B.
aic7xxx: devconfig = 0x580

(...)
As the harddisk is detected, its motor stops spinning. He not even restarts
spinning at a hard reset. I have to switch off the computer and then to
restart.
I hope this is only a simple problem with my hardware-configuration, but I am
not very familiar with scsi:
The terminators are set correctly.
All ids are unique.
In the SCSI-select menu, 'Send Start Unit SCSI Command' is enabled for the
harddisk.
On the harddisk all jumpers are on the default setting (excluding the
termination-jumper and the jumpers for the id).
Thanks for helping me,
Ralf
