you need an initrd file for your installation. boot with a floppy and mount the root partition somewhere. mkinitrd /boot/initrd_kernel_id.img kernel_id example: mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.17 2.2.17 look in your /lib/modules and /boot directories for a list of the kernels that you have available put the following line in /etc/lilo.conf below the image definition initrd=/boot/initrd_kernel_id.img run lilo reboot and your system should be able to find the scsi drives. There is no scsi support when you boot without an initrd image (initial ramdisk) Tom Berkley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I ipgraded my ide system with ut2 scsi controller ( tekram-symbios) > and 2 > ibm u2w scsi hds.
