Hello,

when i tried to install FreeBSD on a P120 with an Adaptec 2940UW PCI
SCSI controller, it hung on the cdrom player.. guess what i wanted to
install from.

It detects everything ok, even the first harddisk, but then i get a
screen full of SDEST (or something similair) scrolling repeatidly.

On the controller are 2 harddisks and 1 cdrom player.

The harddisk are on #0 and #6, the cdrom on #3. (SCSI id's)
Also, the harddisk are both ultra wide (Quantum) , while the cdrom is
SCSI 2 (and only 2-speed, unfortunately).

Can someone enlighten me on this and hopefully tell me what i can do
about it? It would really help since then i can finally get on the inet
with this BSD machine, and do some fun stuff...(and get rid of windoze,
which sees the cdrom perfecly btw)

greetz and thanks,

 Floris v. Gog
