As a lab exercise for a course that I teach, I have in the past had my students install and configure Debian using floppies to get the base system up and running. These same systems, however, do not boot using the slink disks.
The system locks up in the boot sequence after downloading SCSI instructions to the AHA-2940w SCSI controller at id=0. The last line on the console is: (SCSI 0) Downloading sequencer code... 412 instructions downloaded. Then nothing. I have tried the safe boot disks and the aic7xx=no_reset option as a boot param to no effect. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Mike.
