hmm, how exactly would i go about this situation? my 270MB quantum runs
very well using the ncrscsi driver. however my 80MB quantum doesn't like
ncrscsi, and probably needs sbcscsi. is sbcscsi considered an upgrade to
ncrscsi, where my 270MB quantum and 80MB quantum would both run?

also, what pre-compiled kernels should i try to fix this problem?

any and all information is appreciated,
