TO my happy surprise, this old fdomain 1610 scsi controller is happy as a peach at an 83mhz bus (it's an EISA card). And it happily talks with the scsi zip drive I bought for a mac last year. The floppy drive didn't seem to survive the transistion to the new board (they're old, wiht unabled pins. I asked our tech guy which way to mount the cable, and he said he just plugged 'em in, and switched if they didn't work . . .)
SO I have no floppy, 4 hard drives, and a zip disk, with a motherboard that can boot off scsi from the bios. I'd like to make a bootable zip disk, with a self-contained file system. Given that I have a running system, is this a matter of installing the base package with the --root option, then switching to /zip/dev and running ./MAKEWDEV ? rick -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
