So, my next job is to dig into the big box which just arrived by fed-ex containing all possible replacements (including a new motherboard ..). Maybe, I'll eventually get U320 running on this machine ;-) -- Stefan Boresch Institute for Computational Biological Chemistry University of Vienna, Waehringerstr. 17 A-1090 Vienna, Austria Phone: -43-1-427752715 Fax: -43-1-427752790 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
