How much RAM do you have ? My DS20 and XP1000s all have no more than 2G,
that may explain why I don't see these issues.
Also, what SCSI controllers ? I have symbios logic (various) and QLOGIC
(various too).


My 264DP is maxed out with 4G ram and my CS20's with 2G. The SCSI
controllers I tried were the built in Adaptec controllers on the 264DP, a
DEC branded Symbios Logic card that Tru64 reports as a IntraServer SCSI
card and finally the built in Symbios Logic 53C1010 controller. Neither of
them work.

that's very strange then. I have:

in the DS20 (this is the DeC dual-SCSI + fast-ethernet add-on sold with
the DS20).

Are you sure your IDE to SCSI adapter is
working properly ? Any chance to try with a real SCSI drive ?


Yes the IDE to SCSI adapter works as it should. It didn't make any difference if I used the 36Gig SCSI disk that came with the CS20.

There might be more than one problem causing this, I didn't think about trying to remove some of the memory in the 264DP, perhaps that would have made a difference...

Cheers,
Anders
