I am looking for a vendor of a SCSI interface that will support SCO Xenix
on a Compac 286-based system. I am primarily interested in disk drive support
and want to use at least 2 Syquest 44MB Cartridge Drives(SCSI) in a system.
The systems may utilize one or both of the installed drives during operation,
depending on database capacity required.
The SCSI disk driver must be able to support a system rooted on a SCSI disk
and direct booting of the SCSI disk is preferred. If a boot floppy is required
that would be acceptable also. There will be no fixed hard disk installed.
I have 8 systems that need this configuration.
I will be using an Adaptec 1542 SCSI Interface on several 386-based systems
and would like to use it on 286 also. According to Compac Inc, it will not
work on a Deskpro-286, can anyone confirm this?
Please e-mail me with details:
