I think there's still a problem somewhere. I had a server that had been running
with no problems for over a year die yesterday with:
Apr 2 15:50:45 tahiti /kernel: sd1(ahc0:1:0): timed out while idle, LASTPHASE
=
= 0x1, SCSISIGI == 0x0
Apr 2 15:50:45 tahiti /kernel: SEQADDR == 0xd
Apr 2 15:55:45 tahiti /kernel: FreeBSD 2.1.7-RELEASE #0: Mon Mar 3 02:22:25
