  18. Actually I have the Adaptec ACB-2322B card controlling an ESDI drive.
  19. The ESDI was pulled from a Sun "shoebox" disk/tape drive.
  20. Unfortunatly I have no alternate drive controller to test it out on.
  21. :-(
  22.  
  23. To anyone else who is keeping score- I also tried the patched kernels
  24. in the unofficial/newbootables directory to no avail.  I'm still
  25. awaiting suggestions...
