I have a PPA module that works fine, but I have all other scsi drivers (scsi, sd, sr, etc) in the kernel with a Buslogic as my main SCSI card. I load a aha1542 module (which holds DAT drive and external CDROM) and finally load the PPA module, which works fine. All with kernel 2.0.30 thru 2.0.32. I have since tried to install a zip dirve on a laptop that only has a IDE hard drive an no previous SCSI support. I tried just to build modules (scsi_mod, sd_mod, ppa) and load in that order. No luck. Next I am going to try to install SCSI_MOD and SD_MOD into the kernel and simply load PPA as a module. --Jay Barbee -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
