I have an Adaptect 154x. I don't have an internal drive, so the adaptect
controls my external boot scsi HD.

When I installed, I chose the -C (configuration) option, and removed
some conflicts. 

When I went to perform the installation, however, it immediately told me
that no drives were found. This also happens if I don't remove the
conflicts.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening, and how I might fix it? DOS
and Win95 find the drive just fine.

-Allan
