Hi Guys
I have a problem Installing the latest Debain m68k 3.1 r3 "Sarge" on my
A1200
The problem is that it can't mount my external scsi cdrom drive .
the installation gets as far as the "Detect and mount CD-Rom" cdrom drive
and no further.
I am using a Surf Squirrel PCMCIA scsi card and a 4x external scsi cdrom
drive
Any help would be gratefully received.

I've never installed it on an A1200 before, but do you know if the your
SCSI controller is actually supported?

There is also the linux/m68k FAQ - http://www.linux-m68k.org/faq/faq.html
On it, there is a section "Amiga Hardware Support". It would appear that
SCSI controllers via the PCMCIA port are not supported. But the internal
IDE port is supported on your A1200.
