Re: Adaptec Newbie Problem

Thanks Jim... That got me through that one...

Now I have another, if I can....

The boot process seems to go well.  AHA152x detects both the HD and the
CDRom attached to the Scsi adapter.  Then I get this message:

scsi0: channel 0 target 2 lun 1 request sense failed, performing reset
SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.

At that point, the box hangs.  Any thoughts?
