I'm having trouble getting a NICE Mini-EISA motherboard to work with an
Ultrastor 34F SCSI controller.  Does anyone have this combination
working?

When I try to boot from a SCSI drive, the boot sequence reads the
master boot record fine (I can tell because I get the os-bs prompt),
but it gets no further.  Even DOS won't boot.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.  Thanks.

Sandy

P.S.  If it you need more info, I have a 486DX2/66, Actix localbus video
adapter, and a 1-GB Seagate SCSI drive with DOS and NetBSD partitions.
