I have a question, way out of my league, and not my norm, I pulled an
Adaptec AHA-2940 SCSI card out of an old compac to put in my g4 and see
if it works, immediately after I put it, and a 1 gig HP drive connected
to it in the computer I booted OS X. It recognized the drive, and I
formatted it so I could try and use it on the beige g3 I am fixing up.
I also noticed that linux recognized the card and loaded some scsi
drivers for it, but after I removed the drive OS X ceased to boot.
I took out the card and OS X booted, I put it back in and OS X hung
again refusing to boot. The only drivers I can find for this card are
for windows, and unixware, since linux can recognize this card on the
mac, is there some way I could compile some module or something using
linux code for Darwin in OS X that would enable OS X to recognize the
card again?
I am not too worried about this card, but I am feeling very experimental
since I started using linux, so if it's even maybe possible I would like
to try it, and if someone on this list is knowledgable in this kind of
thing, I would be interested in any help.
