OK so, this is perhaps the first time I've really played with SCSI and I think I've done something wrong. I don't know whati nfo to and not to give so if its missing ask me.


I have a two channel scsi adapter and I'm trying to boot from chan B
At first I was using disc 0 but every time I tryed to load files on it vai the wnidows install it would get to certain parts (like 12 15 or 20%) and freeze, bus and HD activity light solid.

If I do get to the actual install I get like via the CD boot up, it locks at the screen to press enter to start installing >,< bah!

All drives in booth chains are properly dected, I've formatted the drives full scan over and over with no problem. There is a terminator on each channel and all drives have unique SCSI IDs


Uhhh... what else do you need to know? From the sounds of it have I configured something wrong?
 
If its not a raid array then try disconnecting all the drives bar the one your trying to install Windoze on.

Luck........ :D
 
I might try that a bit later, right now I'm just going to go ahead and install windows on drive 1 since... that works.
 
I thought about that but I tried two different drives and they exhibited similar behavior, I'm not completely sre it wasn't the drives since all materiel came from removed old server that were problem matic anyway but I just thought since the problems were so similar that perhaps it was me?
