Well, from a quick look at the code, I would guess that your card is getting somewhat confused under high load. I would suggest switching to 5.06I as 5.07B has been reported by the Linux driver author to occassionally hang under load. 5.06I is also the only firmware version Mylex is distributing off their ftp site. I'll check in a fix to '\n' terminate the mailboxs full warning. -- Justin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
