Re: Debian SCSI HD Install Failing

try the compact kernel it's on the debian 3.0 install CD. view the
help in the boot loader to figure out how to load it. Last I checked
the stock kernel did not support adaptec SCSI cards w/o loading modules.
Not certain why I can only assume that the adaptec scsi driver can interfere
with other drivers(I've read in the past that it did) so they took it
out for that particular kernel.

the compact kernel supports adaptec cards. this subject came up a few
days ago under a subject like "ultra 160 cards in debian" or something.

afterwards you can install whatever kernel you want. I prefer to compile
my own.
