FYI, with the lastest version of sys/pci/ncr.c, my problem is gone, and the systems seems to be running just fine. I'll trying running a 'make world' through it to beat on it. Looks like a strange situation; it seems that undefining #define NCR_GETCC_WITHMSG would have the same effect. Anyway, thanks very much for the fix. louie ------- Forwarded Message To: "Justin T.

Date: Fri, 18 Sep 1998 09:14:09 -0400 I'm still getting hangs during boot with the 1.129 version of ncr.c. It's a succession of ncr0: timeout nccb=<large hex number> It does this for quite a while, never finding and SCSI devices. I have to punch the reset button to restart the system. Here's an excerpt from a non-CAM kernel (that I backed up to) to see the SCSI configuration.

This isn't too much to go on; is there any other information I can gather on the next boot attempts? And debug knobs to twiddle? I've successfully converted another Adaptec based machine to CAM and ELF; this system is converted to ELF, but still running the old non-CAM kernel. louie ------- End of Forwarded Message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
