W. Ballantine" Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG HI, I think I've got the right list. I'm running current ( sorry but I don't recall what the CTM version number was other than maybe aroung 3208) on a pc along with NT. The other day I tried to boot-up BSD and the boot hung just before the disk checks. I rebooted and it hung just after the disk checks, so I booted again and same thing. So I decided to reload the system( 980311-SNAP). At commit time, the system hung trying to set default route to gateway, and hung with the disk light locked on. I tried this a couple of more times with the same result, so I decided to reboot NT. When NT came up, I didn't have a network connection, so I rebooted, same thing. I rebooted one more time and viola connection. So I tried to reload BSD, and this time it hung before the install screen with a steady light on the SCSI disk. This seems to me to be a scsi controller error, given the timing of the hangs. Now after all that, my question is, is one of the probes showing a problem with the scsi controller (adaptec AHA 2940), and could that somehow affect the network card ( 3COM 3C90x combo board) to result is these problems????
