SCSI disk drive setup question

[Ken Gaugler <keng@wco.com>]

I have a couple of SCSI drives I am trying to get up and running - one
is a Seagate ST32107WC. It has a SCA connector on it, so I bought a
little adapter thingie to convert it to 50-pin.  On boot up (under
Linux) the PC self test sees it, in the early stages of boot the Adaptec
identifies it correctly, but when the Linux kernel boots, it identifies
it as a Conner something-or-other (not surprising) and gives it the
number 82h.  For some reason I cannot then see it when the OS is
running. Looking at dmesg doesn't show any 'sd' devices. Do you have any
ideas how I can fix this?

I know you can use fdisk and specify the disk geometry if the disk is
0x80 or 0x81, but what about when it comes up 0x82?

Thanks!
