I've here a working AS1000 (from 1996) with a DAC960, it works, but it
boot only over
SRM.
The biggest trouble is the poor support from Mylex for Alpha. i didn't
found
config-tools for the DAC960 an Firmware 3.x on Alpha. And the mails i
wrote were answered with "no support for Alpha by Mylex try Digital".
Therefore i had to configure the DAC960 RAID in a Intel-Box an rebuild
it into the Alpha.
All the config-tools i found at Digital/Compaq are only for Firmware 2.x
