Right now, I am making a new kernel, but I will try to specify the
parameters
for the controllers, when I get the new kernel working.

One last thing... I have heard and read a lot about this 20 year clock
thing. Mostly
that older machine's clocks can be off by 20 years. I am having a similar
problem.
Linux thinks the date is September 8, 1904 ... that is a little more than 20
years. I
downloaded a new clock executable, and it fixes the date, but the time is
wrong by 5
hours. By that I mean my Linux machine is 5 hours behind the actual date.
Is there
some way I can correct this??

Thanks

P.S. - I wil post what I find out about getting the 2 SCSI controllers
working, when I get a
chance.
