Re: 2 SCSI Controllers

[Izaak Bozof <izaak_bozof ins com>]

I have had a similar problem with Linux on Intel -- I think it's a
Linux/EISA interaction.  You should try to specify the controllers explicitly.

I had the identical problem with 3Com 3c597-TX cards -- specifying both
cards at boot time fixed it.
