I get a message about drive refusing wide?? transfers using 8bit transfers. Then the system sits there for about 30 seconds, and I see a scsi bus reset occurs and the boot continues. When the system is booted the kernel doesn't report any CDROM drive found. If I plug this CDROM drive into a Buslogic card the system boots just fine and the CD is useable. -- Regards, Jeff mailto:jeff.kreska@mci.com
