Greetings!
Congratulations on producing a wonderful product. I used to run Interactive
386ix, and I find FreeBSD a much better product. Plus the source code too!
So much for the kudos, now on to the problem I am having. The kudos are
genuine though!
I have included an output from my boot up below for reference. I have also
numbered the lines.
It seems I have a problem booting up. Also about 50% of the time, the boot
procedure fails, with the error message:
NCR RESET: COMMAND FAILED . . .
If I reset the machine, (hard reset) It sometimes works, and sometimes not,
again about 50% of the time. I have a 100MHz Pentium, and am running a SCSI
only system, no IDE drives aside from the floppy. My question is, do I have
a problem with my SCSI adapter, or is this a software issue? I want to be as
smart as I can before I go back to my vendor. Also I want to avoid all the
hardware and software people standing in a circle and pointing to the right.:-)
Specific areas that I do not understand are as follows:
(refer to the below listing for line numbers)
In line 27 from the boot procedure, what does it mean "not supported"?
In line 28, what is the meaning of "not bound"?
In line 30, how can I map the interrupt?
In line 46, what is the meaning of this, it happens on every boot?
As verified by the listing, I am running v2.0, from the Walnut Creek CDROM.
I have obtained 2.0.5 from Walnut Creek, however the install procedure locks
up. I am sure it is related to this issue, since if I remove the SCSI adapter,
the install procedure does not lock up. Of course having no SCSI adapter means
having no SCSI disks, and the install procedure is somewhat silly then. :-)
Below is some output from the ncrcontrol command, it may be of some use to you.
I know almost nothing about device drivers, so the output is mostly meaningless
to me.
Thanks for any insight you can give me on this!
