I do know that it's been working for a long time (>1yr) and my system is generally very stable . >Description: I tried to upgrade to the latest -STABLE. That happens to be 4.2-BETA. My scsi controller no longer probes. Big problem. It fails with a message like: ncr0: CACHE TEST FAILED: ? write 1 ? read 2 or maybe write 2 read 1. Sorry my notes aren't perfect. >How-To-Repeat: Try to boot 4.2-BETA on my home system. Sigh. >Fix: I'm compiling a kernel with the 4.0 version of ncr.c in the hopes that it will work. That's a short-term fix though. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
