I have a Smart And Friendly SCSI CD-ROM - the adapter used some sort of
weird Adaptec chipset. I know that Win98 supported it out of the box, but
for the life of me, I couldn't get it to work under Win2k.

As far as Linux in concerned, back in the days of RH 5.2 I checked their
hardware compatability list, and couldn't find either the CD-ROM, or the
SCSI chipset listed, which is (usually) the kiss of death.

I have the CD-ROM model 4012, and Win98 lists the SCSI board like this:

Adaptec AHA-150X/1510/152X/AIC-6X60 SCSI Host Adapter.

Hope that helps.
