Ok. This is a netboot build, since the cdrom install is too big for a builtin initrd, so it is supposed to load the scsi modules from the network. The SYM53C8XX_2 is builtin, but apparently this is not what you need. Do you already have linux running on that box ? And even if you don't, can you switch to console 2, and send me the content of /proc/pci, or maybe the output of lspci and lspci -n > I might use the driver-1.bin, driver-2.bin, but I > don't know how to mount it > # mount -r -t ext2 /dev/floppy /tmp/mnt > returns "Block device required" Mmm, not a good idea right now, especially as those driver.bin are woody stuff, right ? Normally the image above is self contained, if there are missing modules, we need to check why, and make sure they are included in the scsi .udeb. Friendly, Sven Luther
