Hi, Trying to get slack 9.1 to install on my scsi drives but it wont let me access the drives windows can find them in a snap. But slack seems to be having trouble. Im trying to use the xfs.s to boot but doesnt seem to be working. Any ideas ? :/

The Scsi controller is an adaptec aic7890/7891 btw :P

You probably need to boot with adaptec.s kernel. Check the config file for the xfs.s kernel to see if it has support for aic7xxx. I think not.

this is in the cfg for xfs:

# SCSI low-level drivers
#
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_3W_XXXX_RAID=m
CONFIG_SCSI_7000FASST=m
CONFIG_SCSI_ACARD=m
CONFIG_SCSI_AHA152X=m
CONFIG_SCSI_AHA1542=m
CONFIG_SCSI_AHA1740=m
CONFIG_SCSI_AACRAID=m
CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=y
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_CMDS_PER_DEVICE=8
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_RESET_DELAY_MS=15000
# CONFIG_AIC7XXX_PROBE_EISA_VL is not set
# CONFIG_AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE is not set
# CONFIG_AIC7XXX_DEBUG_ENABLE is not set
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_DEBUG_MASK=0
# CONFIG_AIC7XXX_REG_PRETTY_PRINT is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_AIC79XX=m
CONFIG_AIC79XX_CMDS_PER_DEVICE=32
CONFIG_AIC79XX_RESET_DELAY_MS=15000
# CONFIG_AIC79XX_BUILD_FIRMWARE is not set
# CONFIG_AIC79XX_ENABLE_RD_STRM is not set
# CONFIG_AIC79XX_DEBUG_ENABLE is not set
CONFIG_AIC79XX_DEBUG_MASK=0
# CONFIG_AIC79XX_REG_PRETTY_PRINT is not set

What happens wen you try to install? What point do you get to in the installation?
