SCO Xenix on PS2/65SX SCSI - Lots of Problems

I am trying to install SCO Xenix 2.3.2 onto a PS2/65SX SCSI (they're
all SCSI now) system and I get following error:

	dparm:could not open /dev/hd00: No such device or address
 ...

	cannot open /dev/rdsk/0s0

The folks from SCO tell me I need to use the Adaptec AHA-1640 host
adapter not the one from IBM. The folks at IBM said: "SCO - what's
that", "Adaptec - what's that", "Host adapter - are you trying to
connect to a network?". Needles to say I found out qiuckly that IBM
support reps only know IBM.

I think my problem is that SCO Xenix SCSI drivers only support the
Adaptec AHA-1640 host adapter.

I would like to hear from anyone how has gotten SCO Xenix 2.3.2
installed on a PS2 SCSI.

Thanks,

mark
