I have found that I can't use my AHA-2740A SCSI adapter on this snap, though -current is working ok. If I attempt to install with this adapter I get a panic. I went ahead and installed with my BusLogic BT-747S adapter without problems but when I switch to the Adaptec I also get a similar (I didn't take notes of the install panic, sorry) panic: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xf06539fa fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xf019cb1d code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = Idle interrupt mask = net tty panic: page fault syncing disks...

Note that fsck's have been done by this time so the adapter and drive (its a Micropolis 2217) seem to be working fine. One last thing. With both the Adaptec and BusLogic adapters in the machine (this is how I run it under -current) the floppy disk boot sequence hangs right after the warning about there being no swap space. -- Bob Willcox bob@obiwan.pmr.com (or obiwan%bob@uunet.uu.net) Austin, TX
