- I want to buy a machine to run LINUX and I need some help
- choosing hardware.
-
- Which SCSI host adapters are working best?
-
- the Adaptec 1742 or the UltraStor 24F (EISA bus masters) look good.
- are either of these supported by the current set of drivers?
- will they be supported in the future?
- how do they perform?
- what would you recommend instead?
-
- Any help/comments will be appreciated.

- ps. I'm still working on the hardware FAQ... a huge number
- of replies... it's taking a while to summarize.
