Hello, I am a installing Linux for the first time. The log file after booting from the Bootdisk and rootdisk shows like this:

Since the log file says that SCSI : 0 hosts detected it is not recognizing the hard disks. With this kind of configuration what shall I do next such that I can partition the disk for the Linux native. I tried to go through the document SCSI-HowTo but could not get anything out of it. ~ Thanks and regards Harsh ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
