NCR 825 ctrler

Hi guys, I saw a price list which had the NCR 825 controller, and it said it's a Fast & Wide controller. Is that true? Why is it so much cheaper than the Adaptec, for example? Is it a poor performer? The price was about $100 cheaper than the adaptec. Anyone use it? Is it worth to buy it? Thank

msql doesn't start when I boot

I installed the msql package and it tries to start itself from a script called "run-msqld" in /usr/sbin. The script runs msqld, waits for it to exit, mails a crash report to "msql" and then waits 15 seconds before trying to spawn it again. Well, ever since I installed it, it's been filling my /va
