I'm sending this in on behalf of a friend; it seems to be a SCSI problem.

The motherboard and peripherals are about 1 year old.  The Walnut
Creek FreeBSD-3.0 CD installs/runs just fine. NT4Sp4 runs, well, as
well as you'd expect it to.

Copying files from the 3.1 CD seems to be almost twice as fast as the
install from 3.0, but after about 30% of the way into /bin it stalls
with repeated occurrences of "Unexpected busfree.  LASTPHASE == 0xa0",
never recovering.

Hardware:

1. Tyan S1696-DLUA motherboard (dual P-II 300's, Adaptec 7895 dual UWSCSI, etc.)
	AMI BIOS
	Adaptec BIOS V1.32
	Note: control-A related settings follow:
	AIC-7895 @ BUS: 00h  Device: 0Fh  Channel: A IRQ10 E800h
	AIC-7895 @ BUS: 00h  Device: 0Fh  Channel: B IRQ11 EC00h
	H/A SCSI ID=7
	Termination = Auto
	Parity = Enabled
	Sync = Yes
	Tranfer rate 40MB/sec max.
	Initiate Wide = Yes
	Reset SCSI at IC Init = Enabled
	Extended BIOS Translation = Enabled
	Host Adapter BIOS = Enabled
	Removable Support = Boot Only
	BIOS Support for Bootable CD = Enabled
	BIOS Support for INT13 Extensions = Enabled

2. IBM DGVS09U UltraStar 9ZX 9.1GB 10,000 rpm UWSCSI drive
	On channel B as SCSI ID 0 (wide)

3. Plextor PX-32i Ultraplex USCSI interface CD drive
	On channel A as SCSI ID 2 (narrow)
