Trouble Installing a SCSI Adapter
Okay. I admit I'm sort of a newbie in this regard.
I installed a SCSI adapter on a Sun Ultra 5 workstation. I did the standard STOP-A on the startup and got the OK prompt. I then tried probe-scsi-all. It dumps me back @ the OK prompt w/ no message whatsoever. I tried probe-scsi, nothing.
Just for kicks I installed the external tape drive that I'm attaching this port and did the same thing - dumped me back at the prompt.
Any ideas on what to check? It's kind of hard to tell with not error message or anything.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Tagged queueing is supported on 'W' series adapters, 'C' series adapters with firmware of rev 4.42 and higher, and 'S' series adapters with
firmware of rev 3.35 and higher.
Boards with certain firmware revisions may lock up under heavy load to certain devices, especially if tagged queueing is used. Should you
encounter a problem with your adapter, contact Mylex technical support and ensure you have the latest firmware for your controller.

HISTORY
The bt driver first appeared in the 386BSD patch kit.
AUTHORS
Julian Elischer wrote a driver for the Multimaster cards that appeared in the 386BSD patch kit. The driver was rewritten by Justin T. Gibbs
to take advantage of new board features and work with the CAM SCSI framework in FreeBSD 3.0.
Special thanks to Leonard N. Zubkoff for writing such a complete and well documented Mylex/BusLogic MultiMaster driver for Linux. Support in
this driver for the wide range of MultiMaster controllers and firmware revisions, with their otherwise undocumented quirks, would not have
been possible without his efforts.
