Subject:Adding SCSI support in PicoBSD

Hello:

I recently installed PicoBSD (Network) to 1.44 MB floppy disk using rawrite from DOS and it successfully created a boot disk. I booted the new PicoBSD floppy disk, it booted the system just fine, and eventually presented a login prompt; I logged in just fine.

Everything is nice except that PicoBSD kernel does not see my Adaptec AHA-2940UW adapter or SCSI hard disks. This is obviously not compiled in the kernel. Can I load SCSI support from a standard module?

Also, I tried to mount the PicoBSD boot floppy disk from Linux and no luck; I tried minix, UFS, sysv filesystems and several others but it would not mount. What filesystem is the boot floppy using? I have no *BSD experience and am probably doing something stupid.

I looked at documentation on the PicoBSD website and do not see anything explicitly about these matters. Any help or comments will be appreciated.

Regards,

Bill Parker, <bpar@dc.net>
