Trouble installing w/ Adaptec 2940UW and Seagate ST19101WC
807559Nov 22 2000 — edited Nov 27 2000I am running a home built PC w/ an Adaptec 2940UW SCSI card and a Seagate ST1901WC SCSI hard drive. I have loaded and removed Redhat 6.1, Windows 2000, Windows 98 SE. I know that the hardware is installed properly. When I try to load Solaris 8 for Intel, it goes into the Webstart and after I select the language to install in, it looks for a volume to install to and tells me that no supported disk device is installed. Please check hardware, or select different install method. The SCSI card is listed in Suns' Compatibility list and the drive is a high end 9.1 Gbyte Seagate, which I would imagine works fine with Solaris 8. I checked on Adaptecs' Knowledge Base and found no known problems with this card in Solaris 8 (Intel) I did the same for Seagate.
Can anyone think of any possible reason this is not allowing me to install.
