Is the SCSI Adapter recognized in the system ?
The PCI Bridge ist the National Pico|Power IC. The Advansys should be
the SCSI controller.
Is the driver already loaded ?
Take a look in /proc/scsi there should be scsi file you can view.
Or you try loading the driver for the SCSI controller:
insmod or modprobe advansys
When you load the module it would be good to check if the kernel writes
something to /var/log/messages
When you say switch is it physical? Do I need to set it to a certain
config?
I don't know if there is a possibility to set anything.
When you search the /var/log/boot.log and /var/log/boot.msg
do you find any hints about the buz, advansys or zoran ?
dmesg lets you view the boot messages (probably a file in /var/log) any
hint about the zoran and the driver would be very helpful.

Hallo,
sorry I was offline for quite a while.
You write in the subject that you have a Iomega Buz card, but the lspci
output say's ZR36057. Which was used in the DC10/DC30. Does your card
have a SCSI interface connector and a 15 pin connector on the
backplane ?
The buz was the most problematic card, because it had a PCI Switch on
the card for the ZR36067 and the SCSI controller.

That should be no problem just use the zr36067 instead.

It should also load the driver for the TV decoder and encoder.
When you do a lsmod | grep zr you should see the loaded modules. Are
some v4l (video4linux) modules loaded too ?

I don't know if it is a problem if the lspci does not show you the
card.
Does the lspci command (or some boot log) show you a hint that the scsi
controller ist recognized.
When you start in a 2nd terminal a command like that:
tail -f /var/log/messages
You should see the messages when the kernel loads the driver. That
output would be very helpful.

The output from the kernel when you load the drivers should be very
helpful. To see if that kernel recognizes the card.
