no.  a SCSI host is a SCSI host adapter, ie the SCSI card. If you
had two SCSI controllers in the system, you would see 2 hosts.

Your device is misbehaving. It's very difficult to see what's the problem.
I suggest you change the adapter configuration in the BIOS so to
disable WIDE NEGOCIATION (you probably don't have this option anyway),
and SYNCHRONOUS NEGOCIATION (async or slow).

However, if the MS-DOS drivers don't work, knowing that most of the
time those are not sync/non wide, this may not solve your problem.

SCSI ID 7 is normally reserved for the host adapter on IBM PCs
(SGI workstations usually had it set to 0). SCSI ID more than 7
is not possible with a 50 pin cable (non wide).

modprobe ncr53c8xx

should be enough.

Please also double-check that the SCSI adapter works (e.g. with a
SCSI disk drive), and that there is no interrupt conflict.

this is for another card (non PCI, BTW).
