Hi,
I've just installed a Adaptec 2940 SCSI controller in my SuSE 8 Enterprise box. Its picks the card ok. I also have a 12/24GB SCSI Dat Drive, it does not pick this up. Any idea's or advice? The SCSI id is set to 1 on the DAT Drive. In previous versions on Unix, i used mkdev tape? mkdev tape does not work on SuSE. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance Fareed
Does the 2940 bios see the drive at boot time? Does the drive get listed by the driver at boot time?
