I've seen some strange notes in 'man isp': The driver currently ignores some NVRAM settings. The driver currently doesn't do error recovery for timed out commands very gracefully. Target mode support isn't completely debugged yet. It works reasonably well for Fibre Channel, somewhat well for Qlogic 1040 cards, but doesn't yet work for the other cards (due to last minute unnanounced changes in firmware interfaces). Sometimes, when booting, the driver gets stuck waiting for the Fibre Channel f/w to tell it that the loop port database is ready, or waiting for a good loop to be seen (this does not yet support booting without being connected to a fibre channel device). -- Dimitry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
