Turns out the disk does not issue a "ignore wide residual" message after transferring inquiry data during FreeBSD's CAM probing. As a result, CAM thinks there's an error and refuses to attach to the disk. I wonder if your Compaq disk is the same way. I noticed that it also is a wide drive (16-bit). If you are able to get to the BIOS of the SCSI controller and there's an available option, try setting the drive to 8-bit on the SCSI controller. Then see if -STABLE will talk to it. I'm _STILL_ running my Western Digital in NARROW mode. I don't know if anyone will fix the ODD length inquiry data request that CAM is issuing. But, evidently, there are other possible fixes. Please search freebsd-scsi for my messages about the Western Digital. Good luck, Chuck McCrobie mccrobie2000@yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
