install problems



Hi all-
I ordered the 4 cd set of slink from cheapbytes (and made a $5 donation :).
I am trying to install on /dev/sda2 attached to an adaptec 2940uw. There
are no ide drives on my computer.
I tried booting off the cd, but when it loads the kernel, it gets
stuck after finding my scsi card. It stops right after this:

(scsi0) <Adaptec AHA-294X Ultra SCSI host adapter> found at PCI 11/0
(scsi0) Wide Channel, SCSI ID=7, 16/255 SCBs
(scsi0) Warning - detected auto-termination
(scsi0) Please verify driver detected settings are correct.
(scsi0) If not, then please properly set the device termination
(scsi0) in the Adaptec SCSI BIOS by hitting CTRL-A when prompted
(scsi0) during machine bootup.
(scsi0) Cables present (Int-50 YES, Int-68 YES, Ext-68 NO)
(scsi0) Downloading sequencer code... 419 instructions downloaded


Then it just sits there. I have also tried making the boot floppy
(2.1.9-1999-03-03) with the same result.

What can I do to install slink?

Thanks,
Joe
