Hi.

In my odyssey to get larger disks on my Alix machines, I bought some 16G 
CompactFlash cards. I put install65.fs on a card and tried to boot it on the 
Alix, but it just reboots after it loads the kernel.

Meanwhile, the VM I used to dd the install65.fs file to the CF card is running 
6.0, so figured I should update it (with a reinstall, rather than updates).  I 
tried to boot bsd.rd and install 6.5, but it didn’t see the SCSI drive on the 
VM (but 6.0 did with no issue).  I even downloaded install65.iso and tried to 
install on a brand new VM (VMware Fusion 11.5 on a Mac running Mojave) with a 
SCSI drive, but nope.  IDE drives are seen just fine.

So. . . did I just miss something about i386 and SCSI support?  Any suggestions 
on what to do with the Alix board?  I’m going to see if I can install on the CF 
card from the VM next.
