Don't know what I'm doing wrong. Here's what I've tried so far to get
the kernel (2.0.27, RH4.1) to see this card:
Recompiled: ran xconfig, selected the appropriate SCSI support, then
`make', `make dep', `make clean', and `make zlilo'.
Changed lilo.conf to point to new kernel. Ran /sbin/lilo.
Rebooted. Nothing. Just before linux boots, the BIOS sees the card and
says it resides at IRQ 11, I/O port 0x340h, and SCSI #5. It even
reports what's attached to it: "Iomega Zip 100". WinCrap sees it, too.
I tried passing along parameters at the boot prompt, ie:
boot: linux aha=152x=0x340h,11,5 Still nothing.
In /var/log/dmesg I see: "Failed initialization of WD-7000 SCSI card!"
What gives? Any ideas/suggestions greatly appreciated. (I'd like to
get the zip drive working so I can back up a few things, then upgrade to
RH5.0 and the latest kernel...)
