Relevant info: Adaptec 1542B controller Rodime RO3000S disk drive Issuing the following command will cause the panic: scsi -f /dev/rsd2c -c "4 0 0 0 0 0" After several seconds I see a timeout message from the scsi driver and then: panic: biodone: buffer not busy I can repeat the problem. Am I issuing the correct scsi command to do the low-level format? If not, can someone please tell me how to do it? I dug the above command out of the mail archives after searching through all of the various scsi man pages and not finding anything. -- Mike Pritchard mpp@mpp.minn.net "Go that way. Really fast.
