Help Needed! After looking around for a 486 to dedicate to linux, a 5-year-old "ex-bleeding-edge" server became available cheaply, containing an EISA mb and Ultrastor 22CA EISA ESDI cacheing controller running two Micropolis drives--seemed like a good buy at the time (performs flawlessly on dos/windows).
I turned off cacheing and shadowing and started to load the latest Debian boot/root disks. All seemed to go as per the book--hard drive/controller identified ok etc--until it found 1 scsi host, identified as an Ultrastor 24F. Not surprisingly, it could get no response, eventually tried to reset it, and hung at: "US14F: reset: called" Is there some simple command or parameter to give at the "boot:" prompt which will stop the program looking for scsi hardware? All I could find in help files were suggestions for what to do if your installed scsi card wasn't found--not the other way 'round!
