Adaptec 29160 Support?

Hi,
I have tried 2 ways of installing QNX, and both have ended up in no
success. I am thinking this is due to the possibility of my scsi card
(adaptec aha-29160) not being supported, but I don’t know what chipset it
has (29160?) so I’m not sure. I tried to install from windows into the win
partition, and when I rebooted, it simply said “No ide devices detected”,
and left me sitting there… So I made an install boot floppy, and it didn’t
detect any scsi devices…

Sys Info:
Abit KT7 mobo
Adaptec 29160 scsi controller - Irq 15 - scsi id 7
Quantum HD on LVD connector - scsi id 0
Plextor PX40ts - scsi id 2
Plexor Px-w1210s - scsi id 3
the hd and the 40ts are both terminated, and the card is set to auto
termination.
System seems to work fine in win. (go figure)


Thanks for the help

29160 is unsupported by current driver. Will be supported by the new one
they’re testing now, but don’t know when.

This is listed for x86 QNX RTOS 6.1.0. What version are you using?
