I think you'll need to recompile your kernel, and tweak the settings for the NCR53C8XX driver. IIRC the default settings make some assumptions about Symbios compatibility and reading in the PROM (which seems to be hurting you). I've also noticed that the stock Debian kernel can be hell with some SCSI cards which don't appreciate all the other drivers probing around the system, so that's another good reason to recompile. -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet 410 South Phillips Avenue Sioux Falls, SD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP Key: (0xA33B86E9)
