Greetings,

	I have an interesting problem.  I have a Adaptec 2940U controller in 
my computer.  I also have a JVC CD-R in the machine, attached to the 2940U.  
If I boot FreeBSD with the drive attached the machine crashes in 
scsi_device_attach according to the panic information.  From what I see on the 
screen, it is trying to read or write to a memory address, and the address it 
is trying to access is always ASCII "text" values.  It would appear that one 
of the scsi routines is writing a string that is longer than the allocated 
buffer and killing the stack.  Anyone know anything about this?

	brian
