On many newer motherboards you can enable or disable the SCSI in the

you should get a message from the SCSI BIOS to hit some keys to enter the

How do you have the CD drive cabled? That motherboard has 68-pin SCSI

Sparcs are a bit different. A sparc will boot from tape, CD-ROM, net,
floppy, hard drive, pretty much and device. However, you have to boot from

Shared irq's are a hardware and motherboard issue, not a operating system
issue. You have to be able to setup your hardware NOT to use shared IRQ's
if you can.
This has been a problem on PC's since the first IBM PC rolled out, and
still continues today. That is why special multiport cards
I believe it is more incompatibilities with older BIOS and SCSI BIOS,
etc. I have an older MB that won't boot the SCSI CD. This is really
problematic as the system will boot the floppies, but cannot after booting,
find the boot device. I have to mount the cd and update from the mounted
cd.
Check your script for and use full pathnames for commands, cron doesn't
guarantee you will have a path or any environment variables you don't set

diagnostics. Run them for a couple days continuously to show any issues
that may occur.

PCI Express is NOT PCI-X
PCI-X is larger slot usually running faster at 66MHz vs. standard PCI at
33MHz. PCI-X is found mostly on server motherboards.
PCI Express is a small connector found on primarily desktop motherboards.
