Hi, to X-mas I got me a new ibm-scsi-drive :) therefore I have a Adaptec 2940 AU Controller and, unfortanelety, the drives for this (65 pin) ? are outsold. So I buy a IBM 4,5 GB UW trapezoid connector looks ( ) \-----------/ is smaller, than the Drive - Connectors i usualy have, so i got a "gender-changer" and can connect the drive, ok But as I tried to make a filesystem mkfs -V /dev/sdc/sd5 for example the scsi timed out and the sytem hangs, there where no change to reboot so I hard-reset the box. slow down the datatransfer rate rom 10m to 08m in the scsi-apapter-config for id3 == /dev/sdc and restart, became some messages /dev/sda11 needs check ,,, (/var) /dev/sdb5 needs check ,,,, (/usr) error messages:

Please help, thank You very much Good X-mas Good 1999 -- Peter
