Hey Russ,
No offense implied or intended, but I think this is a common "new user" type
of error. I made it a NUMBER of times with my first scsi machine. Compile the
scsi support DIRECTLY into the kernel. If you do it as a module, the machine
will NOT be able to find the os during boot because the scsi is yet to be
loaded.
If I've misread, /ignore griz applys well. :--)
