Help with Linux installation!
I can't setup Linux. After succesfully fdisk the format of the partion goes
in error.
I tried with different boot disks from several sources, without succes.
The last one was from ftp.teleport.com the AIC7xxx-Elf-sep21.gz
If I select the slow format, there is a timeout (see log below). The fast
format bring up the message: "Aiee: Scheduling in interrupt 0016a320"
I also changed the BIOS onboard to Adaptec 1.22 without success.
Changing the SCSI setup in BIOS doesn't help!
Any idea what to do??
