Hello Debian sparc guys
First, before any bad comments, you have to know I'm a brand new Sun
hardware owner.
Owning a SparcStation SMp is an old dream I realize right now.
I'm installing a woody on a SS20 2x150MHz
The box came with 1x4Go+1x2Go HDD in the integrated form I dont know
the name.
The usual SCSI interface on the SS20 motherboard seems to be a standard
SCSI II one.
As I have several Ebay bided SCSI disks with the same kind of
connectors I tried them. The trouble is that they are U160 ones...
I do tried to connect a 18.2go 10k U160 IBM and a HP 36go 10k U160 (IBM
OEM for sure).
Then, the scsi chain restart again and again at the woody boot.
So, I presume that these pretty too new disks aren't backward
compatible with the Sun SS20 scsi integrated device.
Any experience or clue to investigate ?
Thanks.
Rafael
(I'll be back for sure with more questions on the woody install. I have
experience on Woody installs, but perhaps the devices are differents.)
