RE: [Plug] Adaptec AVA-2825 Host adapter

Yes, I have another PC I use to do DOS stuff.  I'll swap the controller
card.

Thanks, I didn't think on checking the RedHat HCL list.

Thanks again...

I just checked the Red Hat HCL, and I don't see an AVA-2825 listed.  It
could be that the AVA-2825 isn't supported by Linux.  This could also be
why you're getting the abnormal shutdown when you say that you don't have
any SCSI devices.

Do you have the option of getting either an IDE controller or a different
SCSI controller?
