Hi. I tried to install debian 1.1 with Boot1440.bin from may 28, but there was a problem:
I have a Pentium with Adaptec AHA2940 SCSI-controller and a Samsung PLS-31274S SCSI-harddisk. Here is a part of the output of the boot process: (...) aic7xxx: Burstlen = 8DWD, Latency timer = 32PCLKS aic7xxx: AHA-2940 Ultra Rev B. aic7xxx: devconfig = 0x580 aic7xxx: Reading SEEPROM...done aic7xxx: Extended translation enabled aic7xxx: Using 16 SCB's after checking for SCB memory AHA-2940 Ultra (PCI-Bus) irq 10 bus release time 40 bclks data fifo treshold 100% SCSI CHANNEL A: scsi id 7 scsi selection timeout 256 ms scsi bus reset at power-on enabled scsi bus paritz enabled scsi bus termination (low byte) enabled aic7xxx: Downloading sequencer code...done aic7xxx: Resetting the SCSI bus ...done scsi0: Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x (EISA/VLB/PCI-Fast SCSI) 3.0/3.0/3.0 scsi: 1 host aic7xxx: Scanning channel A for devices: aic7xxx: Target 0, channel A, now synchronous at 10.0 MHz, offset (0xf).

(...) As the harddisk is detected, its motor stops spinning. He not even restarts spinning at a hard reset. I have to switch off the computer and then to restart. I hope this is only a simple problem with my hardware-configuration, but I am not very familiar with scsi: The terminators are set correctly. All ids are unique. In the SCSI-select menu, 'Send Start Unit SCSI Command' is enabled for the harddisk. On the harddisk all jumpers are on the default setting (excluding the termination-jumper and the jumpers for the id). Thanks for helping me, Ralf
