Are you sure?

The message the powertec gave after inserting in a computer was during
boot-up was a little line telling that there is a 16/32-bit SCSI-card into
the system. After that it envokes it filing systems and further reboot the
computer. It never asked for a name or whatever. Except the SCSI-manager
program which indeed asks for a name and organisation during first-time
installation.

I've had an issue 1 and now an issue 2 card (firmware 1 May 1996).

It could be that Alsystems changed it's firmware to check for a name or
so...

I guess you best check out at Alsystems.
