I've just gotten an aha1542cf and a seagate st3600n HD (supposedly fast 
scsi2).  When I run with this as the root on a system that has been 
EIDE-based up til now, I get scsi time outs and the scsi hd makes a 
clicking sound at the same time.  It seems to happen at disk-intensive 
times, like boot-up or running X.

I've got a system that looks like this:
AMD 486DX2/80
VLB MB (generic)
generic VLB video with Cirrus 5826 chip and 1Mb VRAM
8MB RAM
used aha1542cf - irq11,dma7,io0x330,bios enabled at d8000
used seagate st3600n 500MB hd
maxtor eide 800mb hd (hda)
soundblaster 16 - irq5,dma1&5,io0x300
sony cdu55e eide cdrom as hdc
generic vlb eide 4-hd controller
iomega 250 insider ("jumbo"?) floppy tape drive
3.5 1.44mb fd

Does anyone have any ideas?  You can post here or send to terrym@cais.com

Thanks for any help!
