Finally got this sucker working with two segate drives. Thanks to a
friend who foundthat you need to specify:
ultra
as a module option. This worked for one drive, but when i hooked up the
second drive it still panic()ed. I finally figured out the problem.
Adaptec was assigning the IDs as 0 and 15. Linux apparently wasnt dealing
well with the 15. Turn off SCAM support and assign the drive IDs
manually. emeber the boot drive is 0 and the adapter is automatically
seven. the second (and third....) devices should be in acending order
starting with one (since 0 is the boot drive).
now to see if the tape drive will work...
