Are you installing Woody or Sarge? If you're using woody, you'll need the
SCSI modules on a floppy disk. Before you come to the disk partitioning
step, load the SCSI modules, and you'll be fine from there. Also, you
might try some of the other install kernels. I don't know which you are
using, but I think bf2.4 has support for more hardware, possibly including
SCSI.
If you're using Sarge, you might need to use expert mode to grab the SCSI
drivers off the CD-ROM. They will then be loaded, and you'll be fine.
If this doesn't help, post the errors you get, along with the steps you've
tried, and also post your hardware configuration.
