Wonder if the >kernel guys made changes that made supporting the old bios's impossible. At the point that the kernel takes over control of the 2940, the BIOS should be irrelevant. I'll see if I can scare up a 2940 of that vintage and reproduce your problem. The probable cause is that we, at some point during initialization, reference a piece of SCB ram that has never been written to. -- Justin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
