WORTHINGTON" To: support@cdrom.com Subject: Adapt-2742W & Quantum XP34301 Hello, I'm curious about the proper configuration for the Adapt-2742W EISA SCSI controller and my Quantum 4.3gig XP34301 (grand prix) in FreeBSD 2.1. I have the 2742W set with bios support on. (#1) (#2) If I turn on Wide negotiation for the XP34301, the system cannot read the partition table and says the HD has 2.8gig space on initialization and it will not mount. (#3) If I turn OFF wide nego, everything is peachy. Kernal IDs the XP34301 okay and gets the proper size and mounts it okay. Question, can I pass geom. to the kernal at boot-up and have WIDE nego. on? Can the current driver handle this in the Walnut-FreeBSD-CDROM 2.1 distribution? What can I do to mount the HD wide?
