Neal, Thank you for the reply. I believe you are correct about the conflict not coming from the SCSI controller. I tried going in and removing each of my PCI & ISA cards one at a time, including the SCSI controller, and the lockup still occurs. I even had a spare video card that I pulled out of the dustbin and installed.
I believe that a kernel build as you suggest is probably the only solution to this, as something is obviously conflicting internally that I can't seem to isolate. I will probably also wax the HURD partition and start over, d/l the .debs and using the dpkg-hurd program from within my debian partition rebuild this time. Unfortunately I won't have a chance to do this for a few days, but I will drop you and the list an email letting everyone know what happens. Hopefully someone else will be able to benefit from from anything I learn. Thanks for putting me on right track, Roger Williams On Mon, Jan 01, 2001 at 06:15:06PM -0500, Neal H Walfield wrote: > It is supported; I have an AIC7895 that works great.
