Yes it is terminated correctly.  This is the same exact setup I had with
the 810 card.  I also checked out the card by loading win95 and it works
okay, so it must be a software issue.  However, if I pull the Seagate hard
disk off the scsi bus, the bootup works fine.  Of course, then I could not
use the drive for FreeBSD.

Somehow, the Seagate Hawk drive is having or causing the command failure
problem -- something that never occurred with the 810 when using freebsd.

Does anyone know what kind of command it is failing on?  Is it trying to
query the drive speed or something?

Any ideas guys?
