Hi.

"Well from what I read with -11 you can only have one DMA device on the bus. So for the A4000T it'll have to use PIO mode since the built on SCSI uses that. "

NO! If you have an A4000T chances are you already have an accelerator with a scsi2 controler (3 if the CyberstormPPC) so you can just disable the onboard scsi2 controler for ZIIIDMA with the Deneb.

@Boot_WB

"Plus, booting from flashrom, and fast (and modern) storage devices - have you seen the price of 50-pin scsi drives lately? May be obsolete, but that means "rare" in Ebayspeak. You have to pay a (relative) fortune for a 2GB drive that may have spent 5 years in a server getting thrashed 24 hours a day."

Sh*t!!! Thanks, I didn't knew that! Thanks, I happend to have two 4GB scsi2/3, 7200rpm HD's that are in very good condition (Very noisy though...)and at some point I almost binned them :-o
