The devices on the SCSI bus, a Sony CDY-76S cd-rom drive and an Iomega zip drive both get autodetected fine, but attempting to mount the cd-rom drive results in timeout errors from the aic driver, and attempts to configure the zip drive result in errors like "ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:24,0 Invalid field in CDB", and when I try reading from it the process just hangs. All this hardware works fine under Win95. Is the problem in the aic controller?
