Hi, excuse my poor english. My problem is that i can not install suse 6.3 because the installation donŽt recognise my SCSI card (an Advansys Ultra Wide, where i have a PLEXTOR 40X & a YAMAHA 6416). I have the Spanish version, and in the manual tells that i can use the param: linux advansys=0x123 (My SCSI card have the 0xD400 i/o address) and i use linux advansys=0xD400, but the kernel donŽt detects any scsi ports or cards, and when the yast2 program have to read the CD, tells me that i donŽt have the CD. With de 2nd CD (YAST1) i use the drivers options and i select advansys, donŽt put anything in the command line, i push enter and the program detects my SCSI card, my YAMAHA, but not detects the Plextor and moreover the prg. hangs (i have to restart the computer). with Corel linux and Redhat i donŽŽt have any problem to detect the card and the cdŽs. My configuration: Advansys UWide SCSI card (ID7) YAMAHA 6416 (ID 3) PLEXTOR 40x (ID 4) with termination ----> i use to start the boot cd and install. In the manual tell that i can create a boot disk with a scsi kernel, that have to be in the disks dir (using the setup program) or in the suse\images dir. But there are not any scsi kernel in these dirs, thought the manual tells that have to be a scsi0x.ikr file..... thanks you. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2314.1000" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2>Hi, excuse my poor english.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>My problem is that i can not install suse 6.3 because the installation donŽt recognise my SCSI card (an Advansys Ultra Wide, where i have a PLEXTOR 40X & a YAMAHA 6416).

I have an Advansys SCSI card with a Plextor 8/20 CD-R and an Iomega JAZ. I have not been able to get my system to boot from the CD (after selecting SCSI on the CMOS setup), but it has no problem with the CD after booting the boot diskette. Have you tried loading the Advansys module from the modules diskette? "Felix" wrote:
