I fixed it so I thought I would reply to myself so that all those who were
pondering on this same issue, wouldn't.

We just changed the memory address via jumpers (remember to disable
the plug and pray)  to the 330 address and it found it and everything
works great....

Show me the Linux.

We have recently purchased an external Phillips CD-R and I'm trying to
get the SCSI card recognized by linux.

I am assuming that it is a aha154x compatable card and have done the
following.

compiled a kernel w/ SCSI and low level aha154x support.

I have tried to boot this kernel, but it doesn't recognize the card.

I have put an append into the lilo.conf 

append="aha1542=0x130,11,7,1"

I read in the SCSI howto that it didn't autodetect unless it used 340 or 334
memory addresses...


My question is:

has anyone made this card work and if so which memory
address/IRQ/etc did you use?

TIA
