hello all.


in tring to install a hand me down drive from an old dell server from days
gone by im running into some problems. the drive is a 4 gig Seagate
ST-15150N SCSI-2 Fast (Barracuda 4). The drive came out of a FBSD server
running 2.2.5 so i know the drive works.  when the box is booting it will
find and reconise the drive. the problem comes when 1. i try and fireup
sysinstall for repartion the drive, after probing from devise it will
finally spit out the following

outcast /kernel: sd0(aic0:5:0): timed out

2. this same error is probuced when i try and mount it manually.

I was wondering, if this is coused by a termination problem? or maybe a
SCSI conflict? the only other SCSI device in the box is the SCSI card
itself and it is running on IRQ11. I've check seagates site for other
jumper settings but was having a hell of a time tring to figger out the
setting from what they provided. If anyone has experance with these drives
or any thoughts on the error, please contact me



Thanks for any help
