a-hah! I've gotten somewhere--but it's not good. Once I connected the three scsi devices, I found that it finds all 3. But . . . The last device in the list does not get a /dev/srX entry. Thus with jus a cd and a zip in the chain, the cd gets one, but not the zip. With both cd's & the zip, both cd's but not the zip. with just a cd, nothing gets one. e.g.:
scsi0 <fdomain>: BIOS version 3.4 at 0xc8000 using scsi id 7 scsi0 <fdomain>: TMC-18C30 chip at 0x140 irq 11 scsi0 : Future Domain TMC-16x0 SCSI driver, version 5.44 scsi : 1 host. Vendor: SONY Model: CD-ROM CDU-8001 Rev: 3.2i Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 01 CCS Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0 Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 100 Rev: D.09 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 and there should be, but isn't, a recognition that the zip is id5 and sr1. Also, i think the nec drive has a problem. I can mount my kids cds as iso devices in the apple drive (don't know how far i could read, but at least the beginnings), but not on the nec (which hangs). I can't mount these cd's that you've so generously sent, though. I've tried iso9660 and ext2. Are they possibly msdos? (i'm compiling more modules for this at the moment). rick -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
