Re: Upgrading a server to 3.0

We have begun to upgrade our Next-Network to system 3.0. We have a  
collection of different hardware(*), and for all of them the upgrade works  
fine.

However, we ran into problems with upgrading our server  
(NextCube'040-660MB(446+216MB) with NextDimension board). As in all other  
cases, we mount the CDROM drive (which is attached to another host) and  
launch the Upgrade application. Then just before the "plan upgrade" panel  
appears a warning panels pops up saying:

	"Another program has control of the SCSI Bus.
	 Hard disks, SCSI floppy disks, and other
	 SCSI devices can't be built."

After that, the "plan upgrade" panel appears, but on the left side it only  
offers the Optical Disk as the only selection for the device that should  
be upgraded.

Has anybody seen such a warning panel before?
Does anybody have a clue as to what this other program could be?

Any comments are highly appreciated.
