Yesterday, I tried to install Mandrake 7.0 with an adaptec 2940UW card,
and it was impossible, because it couldn't get the driver to work (the
chips are not the same on each version). The SCSI card was only there for
the tape backup and cd-burner, so I could remove the card and get the
install running.
Otherwise, I was stuck in an endless loop, and there was no way I could
tell the installation not to use SCSI.
