I have a DELL poweredge 4300 that i'm trying to add a seagate ST318416N
18 gig drive to the 7860 adaptec controller. The bios can recognize
the drive fine, and so can an SGI Challenge, so I feel sure the
hardware and cabling work correctly. The linux kernels (2.2.5 on one
machine, 2.2.12 on the other) both choke on boot with Test Unit Ready
failure, and it then timeouts and resets the bus until I get bored
and power off. Will these versions of the kernel handle 18 gig scsi
drives? Does anyone have any advice?
