The A1000 is not a problem. Debian's primary archive is on an Ultra60 with an A1000 array. I'm willing to bet you have a SCSI termination issue. Try "probe-scsi-all" at the OBP prompt. If you have problems there, Linux wont help you. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://www.linux1394.org/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ Deqo - http://www.deqo.com/
