Hi there:
	I have been having problems with SCSI- aha152x trying to install
SLACKWARE 3.4.  first one was using a wrong line at boot: drive2
aha152x=0x340,11,7,1  instead of  boot: ramdisk aha152x=0x340,11,7,1 which
worked perfectly. I have finished installing Slack and now I can't boot
from the HARD dRIVE.  I have a SCSI Seagate hard drive and a SCSI CdRom.
        I have set the scsi card like this with the Ctrl-A option:

	ISA Plug and Play Mode...................................Enabled
	Plug and Play SCAM Support...............................Disabled

	Host Adapter BIOS........................................Enabled
	Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks........Boot Only
	Extended BIOS Translation for DOS Drives > 1 GByte.......Disabled

	I really wish that somebody can help me. I also have partitioned
my Hard drive in this manner: 
	SDA1:     1200 Mg   /         *root*
	SDA2:     800  Mg   /home     
	SDA3:      16  Mg    for swap

        I have made SDA1 as a booteable partition. When I finished the
installation I rebooted the machine having the next message:

		Missing Operating System ! 

	with the machine hanging after that. I don't have a clue of what
to do. I will appreciate any help
