I'm having trouble getting NetBSD-1.0 to recognize a NEC Multispin 4Xe
cdrom drive on bootup. My host adapter is an Adaptec 1742A, which sees
the 4Xe on powerup (but this only after disabling "Initiate Synch
Negotiation" on SCSI ID 2, which is where the 4Xe lives). Everything
runs fine under DOS, so at least something is working.

Has anybody else run into this problem (on sun-lamp maybe)?

Are there any other semi-secret gotchas in the EISA configuration for
the 1742A that I should be looking at?

My machine is an i486-66 on a Pheonix EISA bus. For what it's worth, a
copy of my config file follows. I realize that it's a bit dirty.

Thanks in advance.

Rick Jardine

PS: If someone can tell me how to get a Soundblaster 16 card running
under NetBSD-1.0, I'd be much obliged. This is a production machine,
so I'm a bit reluctant to install -current.
