Thank you for your response!
Here comes what I get and it looks right!
Linux version 2.1.84 (root@SunWave1) (gcc version pgcc-2.91.04 980115 (gcc-2.8.0
release)) #1 Tue Feb 3 14:31:05 MET 1998
aic7xxx: <Adaptec AHA-294X Ultra SCSI host adapter> at PCI 11
aic7xxx: Loading serial EEPROM...done

scsi : 1 host.
scsi0: Scanning channel A for devices.
scsi0: Target 3, channel A, now synchronous at 5.0MHz, offset 15.
Vendor: HP Model: C1533A Rev: A612

Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0
scsi : detected 1 SCSI tape total.
Only two short questions here.
1. First I get no log-messages, because I use the aic7xxx support as a module.
I try "options aic7xxx=verbose' in the '/etc/modules.conf' file, but I get no
success. Is there a way to get this right? Another setting?
2. You can see "now synchronous at 5.0MHz' in the 'boot.msg' log-file, but my
SCSI tape support 10mbyte burst transfer rate, how can I set this up, right?
Option in '/etc/modules.conf' (my preferred direction) or 'kernel boot
parameter'? 'Lilo' setting?
Thank you, again.
Regards,
Dieter
