Hi. I just got a Buslogic VESA SCSI controller and a 2gig Seagate
Barracuda drive. Ever since then, whenever I try to write to a
floppy, I instead get random data spewed all over my hard drive, and
the system locks up. I have to boot off a boot/root disk to repair
the filesystem.
I have tried using both the floppy controller on the Buslogic card and
a separate floppy controller. This is on kernel 1.2.8. I haven't
been able to try any other kernel versions, since I don't have lilo
setup on here, and obviously I can't write a kernel to a disk.
Any suggestions?
