I am using an Initio 9100UW and it is giving me nothing but grief.


bash-2.05a# cat /proc/scsi/INI9100U/0
The driver does not yet support the proc-fs


bash-2.05a# cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
   Vendor: HP       Model: 4.26GB A 50-S65A Rev: S65A
   Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00
   Vendor: Seagate  Model: STT20000N        Rev: 6A51
   Type:   Sequential-Access                ANSI SCSI revision: 02



Maybe it is settings, but it is not intuitive.  The old Advansys Cards were 
great, and now you can't get them.  I chose Initio because they took over 
Advansys (or Connectcom).


I cannot use the tape drive properly as the SCSI card keeps resetting it's 
bus and the tape drive locks up..

For completeness, here is my PCI info;

bash-2.05a# cat /proc/pci

So if I can't find an Advansys card, what should I use ?
What SCSI cards do you all recommend?

Anyone ??


TIA
