I just upgraded from 2.1-RELEASE to current and I ran into a problem.  The
kernel compiles fine, but the boot process hangs with "changing root
device to sd0".

I've read the handbook and have disabled everything that probes 0x300
except for ep0.

I have a buslogic 946C with 4 SCSI disks. The disks are all found fine
during booting, but I get the messages
   "bt: unit number (1) too high"
   "bt0: not found"

Later, I get the hang mentioned above.

I did change /sys/compile/LOCAL/bt.h to set NBT equal to 2.

Then I no longer get the "bt: unit number (1) too high" message. After bt0
drives are found, the boot process "finds" bt1 and lists it's
IO port, irq, and drives as exactly the same as bt0.

Other Hardware
  3COM 509B
  Intel Neptune MB with P90/64MB

I'd be grateful if someone had some suggestions!

TIA.
