did you fix the fs kernel to recognise the k6 and
use the appropriate delay constants just like you
had to for the main-line kernel?

Hello 9fans!

Can adaptech-1542 work for file server on modern PC?

I tried to upgrade my old  file server (486DX/66MHz)
to a new PC (adm K6-233).
The scsi card is adaptech-1542CF and the ether card is NE2000 compatible.
I moved both card from the old file server to the new PC.
And I used old boot floppy disk untouched.
However new server does not work!

The messages are:
....
for config mode hit a key within 5 seconds.
	no config
sysinit
config w0
devinit	D6.0.0.0
D6.0.0.0: ready
D6.0.1.0: ready      <--- the last message

The PC does not responds after the last message.
Probably it died.

The file server is configured as pseudo-WORM, i.e.,
config w0
filsys main cw1fw0

9fs can show both correct ether address and scsi card name.
IRQs  are 10 and 11 respectively.

Bios is set: legacy ISA for irq=10,11

I tried the scsi test by ^A at boot time.
There is no problem.
The PC can read scsi disks.


I suspect that the 9fs cannot read scsi disk.

Any advices are welcome!
