Hi.  I have a strange problem with the installation of Linux on a
Compaq Deskpro 386/25 w/ a Future Domain TMC-830 SCSI card with a
single hard drive.  It comes up with 2 or 3 extra SCSI devices on
boot, which cause a kernel panic.  DOS, however, only finds one
device, and it boots fine.  In addition, DOS diagnostics show the
drive to be OK.  How does the SCSI checking differ?  Why is is 
more strict?  Thanks, Eric
