It's me again. I recently received the diamond fireport40 scsi
controller, I applied the patch for kernel 2.0.29, and I worked the first
time, with no headache. It took me maybe five minutes to install it for
linux (K6's rule!), and then I spent another couple of hours getting it
work in win95 (sucked). Everything is peachy so far, except that for the
first time in my life I had a kernel panic, I was writing a cdrom and
decided it was time to play an mp3, I tried playing one and then boom,
Kernel Panic!. unfortunately i couldn't save any of the info that it
spat out when it gave up but i did see ncr8xx mentioned on a couple of
lines. Since then I have burnt two cd's just fine, I was wondering if I
had configured the driver incorrectly. here is my setup
is there anything i should watch for?, The small hp hd and the seagate
are both older scsi2 drives, I appreciate the help.
