The following reply was made to PR misc/16189; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Andrew Grillet <AndrewG@coe.co.uk> To: "'freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org'" <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org>, "'nicole@daemontech.com'" <nicole@daemontech.com> Cc: Subject: Re: misc/16189: Advansys ASB-3940U2W SCSI Card does not work with 3.4 Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2000 14:09:19 -0000 Hi, I have the UW single ended card, and also cannot install FreeBSD (This is quite depressing. I ran FreeBSD for about a year on this machine, and then, while away, the machine died -(Cyrix CPU, motherboard, Adaptec SCSI, Seagate HD all blown to bits - power spike assumed cause). I bought a new AMD CPU, Haicom (VIA) mobo, Advansys SCSI and retrieved an old IBM HD. I am unable to install FreeBSD because the default kernel does not include the Advansys wide drivers, and my CD drive is SCSI. I also cannot install on my laptop because the Amacom parallel port CD is not supported). The answer would appear to be an alternative kernel with omitted drivers - possibly a specialised SCSI kernel. I have not got a machine on which to build one at present. I think it should be part of the standard image - as in 'boot SCSI kernel' as an option at boot time. please cc replies to: andrew@grillet98.freeserve.co.uk (my home address) regards Andrew This email is confidential and should not be used/viewed by anyone who is not the original intended recipient.
