This problem has shown itself on two different machine, both running different motherboards and CPUs. Both machines work perfectly under 2.1.5-RELEASE. The only thing that was the same in either machine was that both are using NCR 53C810 controllers and Exabyte tape drives. >From what I've been able to test (both are production machines unfortunately) this problem does not effect SCSI HDs or any other SCSI device. The code in st.c seems to either have a bug or a modification from 2.1.5 that is causing the problem. -- Copy of current DMESG -- Copyright (c) 1992-1997 FreeBSD Inc.
