I ask my friend to test this image. His system can not boot up with current boot disk. The result is OK, that he told me. Used boot disk: resc1440.bin-only-aic7xxx His system: Gateway G6-266 Pentium II 266MHz (ChipSet 440FX) with 64MB memory SCSI controler: AHA-2940UW (Gateway Edition, AIC-78xx SCSI Protocol Chip) # he said that he does not know what "xx" means in AIC-78xx. With current boot disk, the boot up process hangs up at the message (scsi0) Downloading sequencer code... 419 instructions downloaded With bin-only-aic7xxx the boot up process continues and detects the AHA-294x at the next of the above line (he checked it by dmesg), and the detected messages for CD-R, MO (Magneto Optical), HDD are all correct. -- Taketoshi Sano: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
