    Ooooops! I did it...
    Generally speaking "complete drive name" is ALREADY IN quirklist about a
    month at least...
    but it does not help me the same way as if it has been written on a fence
    :-)
    For any case I send you little attachment to check it.
    ("QUANTUM FIREBALLlct08 08" - that's what we are talking about)

    I suspect there is some fundamental lowlevel drawback somewhere,
    or there is some specific in my hardware set which makes imposible to use
    2.4.0-kernel in the future at all :-)
    For instance I have found that version of my Ultra66 BIOS is 1.15
    while you design everything (as far as I can get it) with expectation of
    ver.1.11

    Sorry I'm not sure I can update BIOS ver.1.15 of my onboard
    Ultra66-controller up to ver.1.29,
    I never read anything about such possibility at least.

    Regards,
    Mike
