I'm having all sorts of problems with a P233 with an Adaptec 1542. I also had problems when it had a 1522, and hoped the newer card would fix them. I haven't given up trying ideas yet, and am not totally convinced that the SCSI card is the cause of my problems (but removing it is not an option, since I am trying to load the system onto an attached disk).
