>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.2
>Environment:

	Tested on ASUS TP4 board with 2940UW and four IBM DCAS 34330

>Description:

	boot from boot.flp (only tested with the older of the
	two boot.flp floppies)
	after kernel bootup, and after skipping the manual config section,
	it detects all installed hw and right after the last hw component
	it tested:
	if four drives are present,
	the screen clears and a kernel panic appears.

>How-To-Repeat:

	stick in boot.flp, select "no manual kernel config", and
	watch it crash
	needs to have more than 2 scsi drives installed.

>Fix:
	
	disconnect all except 2 of your scsi drives, install system
	on one of them, build a new kernel with more scsi drives, reboot
	from the scsi drive.
