No, if it didn't show up in boot or camcontrol rescan, there's nothing more you can do. > Maybe it's just a detection problem, and it would help if I wired the > devices into the kernel using something like "device sa0 at scbus0 > target 6" after "device scbus0 at ciss0". Does this make sense? =) The driver should be scanning all the valid target ids so hardwiring wouldn't help. I don't see anything in the above messages showing that the tape drive and cdrw are even being scanned. Are you sure you've enabled scanning for them in the BIOS? Are you sure they have a unique target id and the bus is terminated properly? Did this work in older versions of FreeBSD or linux? If so, what do they say about those devices? -Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
