Hi all... OK, I was able to dig up a better card and cable, my scanner now works. But I can get the system to only see the scanner when I turn it on BEFORE I boot the system. If I am running my computer and then turn on the scanner it is not seen. I tried "scsiadd" but it did not work. Is there a command that I can have the system look for new SCSI stuff?
