OK an easy one for you this time, 'DMA beyond end of ISA', I've
heard of this before but know not of the fix.
 
I know it's something to do with >16MB RAM and hope (pray) it doesn't
mean I need to change my controller!
   
Specs
32MB RAM
scsi Adaptec 1542CF controller
1GB disk

I'm probably still ftping the mailing list archives as you read.

Apologies if you get this twice, system keeps crashing ;-)
