Hi,

Has anyone had this problem before?

I have a P100 with a 2Gb SCSI disk. The host adaptor is Adaptec.
It crashed on me with a Kernel panic and it took 3 to 4 attempts
to reboot.

Can you please help.  I know that the problem is a general description
of an event that probably happens to us all, but any helpful comments
and or suggestions as to why this may occur would be welcomed.

I'm going to replace the Adapttec card with a Bus Logic card in a vain
attempt to solve it.  Anyone know anything about how good this card is?
Is it as good as the Adaptec?

I shall collate all info and re-post.

Thanks in advance.

Suresh
