SuSE Linux 7:
- 486 MCA Bootdisk with kernel 2.2.16 suitable for most newer PS/2
(SCSI, Mod. 9556 / 9557 upwards. Has no ESDI / MFM / IDE support.)
(Internal Version 4.03 / 2001-01-25)
Extract the ZIP, then run lnx7m403 A: /S under DOS to extract it to a 1.44MB floppy.
Don't forget to replace the (dummy and inappropriate) kernel choosen during
SuSE 7 install with the one from this bootdisk !
Don't forget to re-run LILO install after you'd replaced the kernel ...

Rename on download to ibmmca.tar.gz.
This archive file contains the required files that have to be put into

�ven though all versions after 6.0 come with an IBM MCA SCSI driver some of them
have a lot bugs. Michael Lang is fighting a heroic battle against the bugs - and
maybe there is a new, more current version on his IBM MCA SCSI page already ... ?
This 3.2-version has prooved reasonably stable for 2.2.x kernels.
