FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE is rather old, and there have been many driver updates since then. I use the ahc driver heavily on some FreeBSD 3.5.x systems. ... > We have tried it on FreeBSD 4.0, and 4.1 and get the same the bug. Linux also > has a problem when we run our test. Unfortunately, some new ahc driver problems have appeared in some the 4.x code. I understand the very newest stable (via cvsup) has a newer ahc driver. Or, you could just replace the Adaptec 3940 with a NCR-875 based card. It just seems that the Adaptec cards in general are so picky. The driver needs to be updated for the Adaptec chipset rev-of-the-week, and still keep working with existing cards. > I have mailed freebsd-bugs but have not received any replies. This is a I believe that freebsd-bugs is for PRs only, and no humans actually read that list.
