Hi All,
I don't know if this is the appropriate forum, but nevertheless.
I have a HP Kayak XU 800. This machine has a Adaptec AIC-7892
SCSI controller and a quantum hard disk (Atlas 10k). I tried to
install FreeBSD 3.3 on this machine, but the hardware probe is unable to
probe this card and I am unable to proceed (I have only one hard disk)
I went through the FAQ and at the boot prompt, I typed 'boot -c',
to go to config mode. then tried out the command 'eisa 12' and then
exited, but of no use.
This machine was running NT previously and is now running Red Hat
linux 6.2. Both these OS's could recognise the SCSI controller.
Given below is the output of linux 'dmesg' and 'lspci -v', if that
would be of any use.
I bought 3.3 CD's from Walnut Creek and use BSD at home, but that
has a IDE disk. This is my first attempt at installing one with SCSI.
Upgrading to 4.x is not an option.
Many thanks in advance for all your help!
