Comments/Problems:
Tried both GRUB and GRUB2
SCSI controller is an on-board dual channel Adaptec AIC 7895C Ultra Wide LV
Differential with 5 discs on channel A and correctly terminated, none on
channel B.
Channel B cable is not connected, internal controller termination enabled.
There does not appear to be any manual way to set the SCSI BIOS for channel B
disabled, it is just set to default configuration, but Knoppix 5.1.1 CD
reports that it is BIOS disabled, and simply assumes the default parameters.
On re-boot the A channel is identified, but kernel panic while checking the B
channel
