Howdy,
I'm trying to install Debian Linux on a Compaq Deskpro XL.
I have located the Linux Compaq Deskpro XL HOWTO but there
is only information on how to create the bootdisks for Slackware
and RedHat. Did anybody try to install Debian on such a

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The driver, or module you need is aic7xxx. My 2940 works fine,
under 2.0.29, 2.0.27 and previous kernels.
Under a 2.1.31 kernel that I compiled, I have an un-referenced
