To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Date: Sun, 10 Nov 1996 11:31:36 +0100 (MET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL28 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-hardware@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk When I read a floppy (doesn't matter if 1.44 or 1.2 M) which has some errors on it, so that error messages appear on the console the kernel panics after entering the next command. (message: dma channel busy. ) If the floppy is perfectly good then all goes well. This behaviour appeared in the SNAP of Oct, 14. In earlier releases the floppy worked perfectly. I noticed this yesterday while browsing through a bunch of old floppies. Is this error fixed meanwhile? TIA Robert
