They only happen occaissionally but it takes the whole system down with the following error: SCB 0x2 timed out while idle LASTPHASE=0x1 SCSISIGI=0x0 SEQADDR=0x9 SCSISEQ=0x12 SSTAT0=0x5 SSTAT1=0xa st0(ahc0:2:0) SCB 2: immediate reset Flags=0x1 ahc0: Issued Channel A Bus Reset 1 SCBs aborted This has happened using Dump and aslo Afio. I've just changed the cabling to the tape drive (external) with no change in the problem. I'm using an Adaptec scsi with the ahc driver. This never happened with FreeBSD 2.1.5 which I ran for about 9 months. Is anyone else having a problem like this? The rest of the system is a Micron Dual Pentium 133 with 64 Megs Ram and a 4.x Gig scsi drive. Thanks for any advice that anyone may have. Sam Magee webadmin@adsight.com
