[Mimedefang] OT: adaptec scsi card help with fedora

[Stephen Loeckle]

I've heard terrible things about linux and these boards. I have a friend
that tried exactly that but never could he get linux (he tried redhat
8&9 and suse 8.2&9) to install. Windows (ick) installed fine which is
weird.

Subject: [Mimedefang] OT: adaptec scsi card help with fedora


Hi All,
	Sorry its way off topic, but I am trying to get a new mimedefang
server up and running. Problem is it's the Intel nightshade board. I've
disabled the symbios scsi chip and got a pci Adaptec aha 2940uw card to
replace it. Trouble is where fedora used to hang on the smybios driver
install it now hangs on the Adaptec driver install aic 7xxx. I have
tried the Linux dd install with a driver disk and the Linux noprobe,
neither of which will recognize the disks when it gets to partition
time. 

Can anyone give me some advice on solving this issue?

Andrew
