(fwd) Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I've tried this on -questions and didn't get any replies, so I'm trying out scsi (though I knwo it's not really the right place). I've also tried to leave just one disk on the SCSI chain, and I get the same results. Any help will be greatly appreciated. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 6 Aug 1997 19:08:10 +0300 (IDT) From: Nadav Eiron To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: NCR 810 fatal errors during install. Hi people, We have here a DECpc XL 590 (it used to be a 466, but got upgraded recently). This machine has a Nepture chipset, built-in NCR 53C810, 32MB RAM and a DE435 ethernet card. On the SCSI bus I have: ID 0 - Quantum LPS340S (340MB disk). ID 1 - HP C3323-300 (1GB disk). ID 5 - Toshiba XM-4101TA (2x CD). All are recognized correctly during boot (both disks work at 10MB/sec). Both 2.2.2-RELEASE and 2.2-090801-RELENG installs give the following shortly after starting writing to the disks (either during newfs-ing them or while copying): ncr0:0: ERROR (20:0) (8-28-0) (8/13) @ (e18:18000140). script cmd = 88030000 reg: da 10 80 13 47 08 00 1f 01 08 80 28 00 00 08 00. ncr0: have to clear fifos. ncr0: restart (fatal error). sd0(ncr0:0:0): COMMAND FAILED (9 ff) @f0663c00. ncr0: timeout ccb=f0663c00 (skip) and then it just hangs. This machine used to work fine (without the HP disk though) when it had a 486 CPU under Win95 and NT, BTW. Can anyone make sense of that? TIA Nadav
