Hello,
   I am having a simelar problem with an advansys scsi controller (sorry I
do not know specifics as to the model as I am unable to look at it right
now).  Even if I disable adv0, I still get "waiting 15 seconds for scsi
devices to settle down...", then time outs, then a kernel panick with a
page falt (signal 12).  I was about to try to see which part of the kernl
was causing this (ass discussed in the hacking section of the
handbook) but I wondered if anyone had experienced this kind of problem
besides myself.

Thanks in advance,
Ivan.
