I managed to get my SCSI devices to be detected on Mandriva
LE2005.  The trick was th reinstall.  The BusLogic card was not
in the system the first time I installed.  After a reinstall
everything on the SCSI card's buss is detected.  This is on
my Athlon, ABIT system.  Next I'll try my Celeron, Intel mobo
system.

FYI....
