<para revision="2" xml:id="BId-drakxid-setupSCSI-pa1"><application>DrakX</application> will
first attempt to detect any <acronym>IDE</acronym> and
<acronym>SATA</acronym> devices present in your computer. It will also scan
for one or more <acronym>PCI</acronym> <acronym>SCSI</acronym> cards. If a
<acronym>SCSI</acronym> card is found, <application>DrakX</application> will
attempt to install the correct driver.</para>
<para revision="2" xml:id="BId-drakxid-setupSCSI-pa2">However, because
hardware detection is not foolproof, <application>DrakX</application> may
fail to detect your <acronym>SCSI</acronym> hard drives. If so, you mayl
need to specify your hardware.</para>
<para revision="2" xml:id="BId-drakxid-setupSCSI-pa3">If you have had to
specify your <acronym>PCI</acronym> <acronym>SCSI</acronym> adapter(s),
<application>DrakX</application> will ask if you want to pass configuration
options to it. Allow <application>DrakX</application> to probe the hardware
to determine any card-specific options needed to initialize the
adapter.</para>
<para revision="2" xml:id="BId-drakxid-setupSCSI-pa4"><application>DrakX</application> will
usually complete this step without issues.</para>
<para revision="1" xml:id="BId-drakxid-setupSCSI-pa5">If
<application>DrakX</application> cannot automatically determine the
parameters to be passed to the hardware, you'll need to manually configure
the driver.</para>

these parameters is beyond the scope of this help screen.</para>
