-
-Users of Adaptec 2940 SCSI cards, and other SCSI controllers with the
-aic7xxx chipset, will probably experience problems with the standard
-boot-floppies.  A kind user has made some experiments which many users
-find to solve their problems.  There are two alternative Rescue
-Floppies for the i386 architecture at ftp://kalle.csb.ki.se/pub/.
-There are also replacement kernels in that location, which you can use
-to simply replace the existing kernels on the boot-floppies.  You'll
-need the Drivers Floppy from the standard location.

-A competing and newer set of Rescue and Driver Floppies for Adaptec
-users can be found at https://www.debian.org/~adric/aic7xxx/.
