Do you mean that the DC-390U with the Plextor attached doesn't encounter any problem with FreeBSD-4.5 on the Gigabyte 7ZX-R Mainboard? I got a couple of so weird SCRIPTS execution breakages under FreeBSD 4.5. For one of them 4.3 booted ok, but 4.4 nd 4.5 failed. Could this be tried? Btw, the driver changes between 4.3 and 4.4 should have no effect, given that they apply to the new CAM transfer code that is #ifed out for FreeBSD 4.x (at least for now). There is a single endian related change between 4.4 and 4.5 that has no effect on little endian machines. Regards, G=E9rard.
