Does the ISC2.2 have a limit as to how big an ESDI it can support? I am trying to install it on a 600MB maxtor and it chokes... has anybody done this before? Thanks, bruce deadhead@cup.portal.com

We have it running on a pair of CDC Wrens (ESDI, 680(or so)MB formatted) with no problems. The questions are: What does 'chokes' mean? What is the rest of your configuration? How do you have the ESDI controller configured? -- Conor P. Cahill (703)430-9247 Virtual Technologies, Inc., uunet!virtech!cpcahil 46030 Manekin Plaza, Suite 160 Sterling, VA 22170

I have a 660 MB Fujitsu with SCO System V3.2. I had no problems installing it. The trick was to use a DPT caching controller with the drive. Its terribly expensive but it looks like a normal controller to the hardware. -- Sincerely Yours Tris Orendorff tris@alzabo.uucp ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ALGERNON: The doctors found out that Bunbury could not live ... so Bunbury died.
