[Freemint-list] MiNT 1.19 and SCSI drive

[Piotrek]

Hi,

I change my system and I connect to SCSI only one devices. There is a 
disk Segeate Barracuda ST15150N. I check disk in HDDRIVER and it is good 
without bad sectores additional I made e2fsck -c r: (r: is partiotion 
ext2 on this disk).
I thing there is a problem with terimination (I recall that the problem 
concerns the operation in 060 mode)

In the manual for that disk I read that one can wear termination 
depending on jumper look at:
Term. power from drive.
Term. power from SCSI bus.
Term. power to SCSI bus.
Term. power to SCSI bus and drive.
Enable drive terminator.
Disable drive terminator.

Therefore it please the position in which you should put the jumper on 
the disk and what is the difference between eg from SCSI bus and to SCSI 
bus

Regards
Piotr
