Hello.  
  
I've got a problem with a FreeBSD 4.1.1-RELEASE system (although I also tried 4.0-R, which   
behaves just the same. The machine is an IBM PS VP with a 486DX2, 20MB of RAM, ISA bus, an 
IDE HD, a 3Com EtherLink III, a modem and an Elsa QuickStep 1000pro ISDN card.  
Now I had a spare SCSI HD along with a Zip Zoom SCSI adapter (which is actually an Adaptec 
AVA-1502): ok, it can't boot, it will probably be very slow, but it's fine for what I have 
to do.  
I plugged in the adapter and connected the Disk (with another OS it works fine, so I don't    
think it's an hardware problem).  
I configured my kernel with the following lines (but it's the same with the generic kernel):  
  
> device aic0 at isa?  
> device scbus  
> device da  
  
  
Then I rebooted, but I got the following:  
  
> Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle  
> (probe0:aic0:0:0:0) ccb 0xc04dbc00 - timed out, phase 0xb6, state 4  
> (probe0:aic0:0:0:0) ccb 0xc04dbc00 - timed out, phase 0xb6, state 4  
> (probe0:aic0:0:0:0) ccb 0xc04dbc00 - timed out, phase 0xb6, state 1  
> (probe0:aic0:0:0:0) ccb 0xc04dbc00 - timed out, phase 0xb6, state 1  
> ...  
  
After the first line, the others appear very slowly (even one per minute); every device is    
probed a few times times up to device 7 (it's a narrow bus), sometimes the number after    
"ccb" changes.  
  
I tried every IRQ the card could handle (i.e. from 9 to 12), the kernel will always default    
to 12, so I "userconfig"ured it in the other cases; I also tried using the "alternate"    
jumper which moves the card from i/o ports 0x140 to 0x340, and here the kernel is smart    
enough to detect it. Anyway I could not get it to work. I double-checked and I should have    
no IRQ conflicts, since from 9 to 12 there is no legacy card, only the two plug and play    
ones, which get whichever ones are free.  
  
Any hint/suggestion?  
  
 Bye & Thanks  
	av.
