Hi All, after experimenting around for a while I'm clue-less how to solve the following problem. The machine is a Pentium-133, 32MB RAM, ASUS-Board (don't know the model-id right now) with 2 NCR controllers, 2GB IBM disk, hp DAT, 7 Teac CDROMs running 2.1.5-RELEASE. I generated a kernel with firewall enabled, superfluous devices disabled and some params tuned (I can send the config file on request). After the problem occurred I tried different combinations but to no avail. When I boot it finds the 1st NCR, all the devices, the 2nd NCR, the error message and goes on with the ISA devices.

CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED. Probing for devices on the ISA bus: The GENERIC kernel correctly continues: Nov 18 17:09:21 bug /kernel.GENERIC: ncr1 <ncr 53c810 scsi> rev 2 int a irq 12 on pci0:12 ncr1 waiting for scsi devices to settle (ncr1:2:0): "TEAC CD-ROM CD-56S 1.0B" type 5 removable SCSI 2 cd2(ncr1:2:0): CD-ROM [....] In the beginning I found that the CACHE TEST FAILED appeared when SCSI_DELAY=15 was NOT in. After putting this option in it detected all devices on the second SCSI bus, however it panicked after `changing root device to sd0a'. I further reduced the configuration and now I get CACHE TEST FAILED with SCSI_DELAY=15 included! (What cache, what script ???) Since I know for sure that the provided information is not what is needed and the important information is missing, any response that helps me to find out what goes wrong is appreciated.
