SCSI problem with Conner CP-3200

[David L. Markowitz]

In comp.sys.sun you write:

>I installed a Conner CP-3200 200Meg drive as the second internal drive on
>an SS1. Initially the system was running 4.0.3 and the drive worked fine.

>I then tried to install 4.1 on the new drive.

>When I booted off the new drive a got heaps of SCSI read timeouts which

We use these drives all the time.  Make sure that your drive has PROM
version 2.03 or later.  1.86 and earlier are known to not work under 4.1
(this has been covered in previous sun-spots).  Our distributor upgraded
them for us at no charge.

|PS. Can anyone tell me where I can get some documentation on the CP-3200

Have you asked Conner?  Leave the other jumpers alone.
