I have experienced the same problem with mdk9.1 - after earlier
versions worked perfectly!

My guess is that Mandrake are depending on their ability to
automatically find everything, and that this doesn't work for
ISA cards - such as the 1520.

Definitely an oversight!  I have been unable to use my SCSI
drives with 9.1.  I hope they sort out this situation for 9.2.

Mysteriouser and mysteriouser!

I used 'expert' install because standard installation hadn't recognised
the SCSI card.

What *is* going on?
