I suppose you know there are issues on the Mandrake site about that
particular Adaptec card?
I went thru 3 or 4 controllers and a buch of drives trying to get installed
on 7.1. Twas a PITA and I ended up needing to use my live system rather
than the old POS I have hoped to make use of. The Adaptec was one I didn't
try, even though I have one, because of the warning.
good luck,
BobC

Hi,
I have had nothing but problems trying to get this program installed and
running. Do I not have enough hard disk space? Does anything else about
this
configuration look questionable?
Dell Optiplex DGX 5166
Pentium (r) 166MHz
64MB RAM
EISA BUS
SCSI HD ST31230N 1010MB
and NEC CD-ROM 502
w/ Adaptec AHA-2940 controller (card)
and Symbios Logic 53C810 controller (on board)
ATI Graphic Pro PCI display adapter atim64-GX
15" Digital monitor PCXBV-HZ
Thanks for any ideas, help, or web sites to check out.
Robert
