I do not care anymore. > Even though you don't care anymore, whether or not the Jaz is upsetting the card or driver by spewing garbage is easy to determine: with nothing plugged into your bus adapter, does the rescan still lockup your machine? And while we're talking about it, is the lockup a real lockup, or is it simply that the camcontrol process hangs and you have it in your startup sequence in such a way that the boot is not able to continue? Also, did you do the obvious things like trying the aic on different interrupts [well, at least both of the interrupts that you stated you use with other devices successfully]? In your second(? third?) message to the -scsi list, you sent the following (snippets from) dmesg: >aic1: <Adaptec 6260/6360 SCSI controller> at port 0x340-0x35f irq 3 slot 0 on pccard0 >aic1: aic6360, dma, disconnection, parity check >(probe0:aic1:0:0:0): ccb 0xc0b3c000 - timed out, phase 0xa6, state 1 I'm not sure about yours, but my 1460B does not list irq 3 as one of the valid IRQ's that it can generate. Check "pccardc dumpcis" and search for IRQ. While "timed out" messages could also be cable/device related, on my setup they indicated an IRQ conflict. For what it's worth, 5.0-CURRENT + SMP 2xPII + SlimSCSI 1460B (irq 9) + Iomega Zip works. > It looks like Linux will have to be my long-term solution.
