Comment 1 Meryll Frost 2002-10-28 19:43:42 UTC
Additional information:

Attached to the dual channel 39160 controller is a Plasmon DVD jukebox
with 4 DVD-RAM devices and the Jukebox controller.. If this is disconnected
from the SCSI controller during installation, installation proceeds without
error. Subsequently, if the device is attached after the load and rebooted,
the devices are properly recognized. So it appears that the devices attached
to the SCSI controller may be causing this problem.
