DAWICONTROL DC-2975 U (2)

Sorry, if this was posted twice!

Hi,

I am trying to install Debian 2 on my computer.

However when I select "Next: Partition a Hard Disk"
from the installation menu I get a message that
no hard disks where found.

I have a DAWICONTROL DC-2975 U SCSI Controler with a CDROM
and an IBM UW HD connected to it. The HD is connected via
an U to UW adapter.

Below is more information to the problem.

Any clues what is causing this?

Thanks for any advice,

Felix

The file "boot.bat" which I call from DOS:
> @echo off

> loadlin.exe linux ro ncr53c8xx=wide:0 initrd=root.bin root=/dev/ram

The startup messages I get in LINUX:
