Apparently 2.0.5 is not compatable with more than 1 Adaptec 2742W. I can add the second device line in the kernel configuration, and it will probe the bus for the second adaptor correctly (it probes both correctly). However, the kernel will continue to probe the remaining devices and at the end of the probing phase, right before the swap is turned on and the file systems mounted, the system locks up. I've tried different IRQ's for the two adaptors. I've also tried the same IRQ with the conflicts keyword added in the second device line. Same results - the adaptor and its bus are probed correctly but the system locks up before the file systems are mounted. Each adaptor has exactly one Seagate 43401N (Elite 3) drive. The first drive is assigned sd0 according to the messages and the second drive sd1, just as would be expected. BTW, although the Seagate 43401N _is_ a wide SCSI device if the 2742W is configured to "initiate wide negotiation" for the 43401N, FreeBSD 2.0.5 will not probe the device correctly. It doesn't make a difference to DOS whether that flag is turned on. ============================================= Matt Rosenberg Washington University School of Law St. Louis, MO, USA mar7@cec.wustl.edu ; rosenbem@wulaw.wustl.edu http://www.cec.wustl.edu/~mar7/ =============================================
