With a current sup as of Wednesday, my kernel hangs with an
Exabyte 8200 on scsi id 4. I get the drop into ahadebug mode
and error messages similar to those reported by others (crash
reports ).

With dos and linux this doesn't happen. With the kernel on the
recent SNAP-3-23-96 issue boot floppy "boot.flp" it doesn't
happen ( although that kernel overwrote the eeprom on my
SMCElite 16 ethernet card when it probed).

With a SONY single speed CDROM, it works, but is very slow to
initialize.

Help???
