  Julian's SCSI drivers don't seem to work on my 386bsd system.  I have an 
Adaptec 1542b controller, and a compatible CD-ROM.  The CD-ROM is scsi address
2, and is referred to as /dev/as2d.  Without Julian's SCSI drivers, I type

        % mount -rt isofs /dev/as2d /mnt

twice, because the first time it gives me an input/output error, but it does 
work the second time.  With Julian's SCSI drivers, I get a 'device not 
configured' error.  Help!  The 'rub' is, the only forseeable way I can get a
printer under 386bsd requires Julian's SCSI drivers i.e. I can either have a 
printer or a CD-ROM. HELP!
                Thanks in advance,
                        Chris Mikkelson
