I've been trying for a few days to make freebsd2-0 works with a TMC-830 8bit scsi adaptor, using i386/isa/seagate.c. So far i've been able to make autodetect works, it also detects all the present devices, and i'm able to read/write to them. All i had to do was to add a signature to seagate.c and recompile (The bios version on it is 4.0L, 5.0C was the oldest in the sources). The problem is, it timeouts ALOT, and eventually panics and crash. I tried everything i could think of, like the fix for tmc840 adaptor (flipping defs for STAT_MSG and STAT_CD and forcing seagate type), i played around a lot with scsi terminators, and on and on. Maybe someone here had the same level of troubles with a tmc-830, and could help me. Maybe someone with scsi experience can tell me "It could work if you do xxx", or "Just ditch it", whatever. Just any enlightement will do :) -- Dominic_Gregoire@LLC.org :
