One thing I've noticed, however, is that it only occurs when I'm using soft updates AND I'm installing across both drives on my test system. If I install to only one drive, or don't use soft updates, the problem does not manifest itself. I've tried this many times and that's about as best as I can "narrow" it down. The relevent dmesg bits from the affected system are: ahc0: port 0xb000-0xb0ff mem 0xdd800000-0xdd800fff irq 14 at device 6.0 on pci0 aic7890/91: Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/255 SCBs cd0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 4 lun 0 cd0: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2 device cd0: 20.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 16) cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da2 at ahc0 bus 0 target 5 lun 0 da2: Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device da2: 20.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15) da2: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 80.000MB/s transfers (40.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 8715MB (17850000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1111C) da1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 2 lun 0 da1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da1: 80.000MB/s transfers (40.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da1: 8715MB (17850000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1111C) Sorry I misidentified these drives as Quantums in my first failure report. They're clearly IBM drives. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
