Actually I remember that Slackware came up easily the first time I tried 
it back in 1994 or so... and I had two SCSI controllers in my machine 
and I remember having to give the boot process for the install the 
parameters for the 2nd controller.  But they had a good booklet that 
came with the distro that explained all that.  Seems pretty fantastic 
now what with all the problems people (and myself) can run into trying 
to do an install...

Good luck!

And as a PS... right after getting Slack installed I tried RH at around 
4.3?  Had some problems and it took 6 weeks to get a response out of 
their support... by that time it was in the trash.  :-)

Never have been able to have much success with RH since.
