I have been looking around for the specs and brand of this cards but I have not found any. I ordered the G4 with SCSI card and documentation, but they forgot the last part of my request. Anyone know Is it Adaptec? SLOT-D SCSI card Card type: scsi-2 Card name: ATTO,ExpressPCIProUL2D Card model: UL2D Card ROM #: 1.4.3f1 Card revision: 7 Card vendor ID: 1000 SLOT-D SCSI card Card type: scsi-2 Card name: ATTO,ExpressPCIProUL2D Card model: UL2D Card ROM #: 1.4.3f1 Card revision: 7 Card vendor ID: 1000 Regards Even

No... It's a dual channel Ultra 2/LVD ExpressPCI Pro card (UL2D), from ATTO Technology; slightly different from the "original" card (lacks some connectors, both internal and external), but AFAIK it contains the standard ATTO firmware (current version: 1.6.3, but I wouldn't update unless it is giving you problems). See www.attotech.com. regards nicola

It should work with the sym53c8xx driver. Can you try this kernel and this ramdisk to boot into the installer? ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/2.4.1/k_deflt-2.4.1-3.ppc.rpm ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/2.4.1/vmlinux-deflt-2.4.1-3.gz ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/2.4.1/ramdisk.image.deflt.gz You can check in linuxrc -> system info -> kernel messages if the card and the attached devices appear.

Thanks a lot for all the help. The problem persists. I have rewritten the yaboot.conf file 50 times and booted both with and without SCSI drivers. For now I have "given up", tomorrow I am going to install it on the ATA drive. But any last ideas are more than welcome. Thanks a lot Regards Even
