It looks correct here. Are you booting on an IDE or SCSI CDROM?

Comment 3 Richard Black 2001-02-09 21:25:24 UTC 
IDE CDRom drive.  We tried it again, when we enter expert mode by typing expert 
at the boot prompt, when we get to the add SCSI devices, aic7xxx is no where on 
the list.

I have check with the qa0214.0 tree and the old adaptec 7xxx driver is available
for expert mode.
