[CS-FSLUG] About SCSI

I know almost nothing about SCSI.

Someone gave me an old mini-tower from a corporate network. It has an 
AMD K6-2/333, a 1.8GB IDE hd, but lacks a CD-ROM. Now, I have a PCI SCSI 
card from Compaq in my parts box, with a wide connector; I have a wide 
cable, and an old 6x SCSI CD-ROM. Is there any reason I can't use that 
combination with a boot floppy to install Linux/Unix? The mobo is your 
standard mini-tower stuff -- looks like AT (PS/1 keyboard plug).
