20 Daniel,

22 After loading scsi_mod and aic7xxx, I checked dmesg and all scsi devices
23 were found.
24
25 There is no entry for /dev/discs and all the
26 /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/targetX/lun0's are empty.
27
28 I put a modules.conf and modules.devfs into the rescue /etc dir and
29 restarted devfsd. Didn't work. Of course, I was guessing.
