The firmware probably has no clue what an adapter card is. It does know what that specific qlogic card is. Any firmware on the adaptec would be x86 code, and hence of no use to the alpha. I highly doubt you will be able to boot from the adaptec, although once booted I think linux should be able to use it just fine. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
