I'm currently running FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE on a P166 with 128MB RAM, an Adaptec 2940 UW controller, 2 Quantam Atlases, 1 Quantam Grand Prix and an IDE Quantum Sirocco. The machine will lock up periodically, giving SCSI drive errors. Here's the errors I've been getting, the error as reported in /var/log/messages and a copy of my dmesg output: sd1(ahc0:5:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:29,1 retires: 4 SCB: 0x1 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE == 0x1, SCSISIGI == 0x0 SEQADDR == 0x4 Queueing an Abort SCB Queueing an Abort SCB no longer in timeout messages: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jun 14 06:35:22 havarti /kernel: sd1(ahc0:5:0): SCB 0x0 - timed out while idle, Jun 14 06:35:22 havarti /kernel: SEQADDR == 0x8 Jun 14 06:35:22 havarti /kernel: sd1(ahc0:5:0): Queueing an Abort SCB ------------------------------------------------------------------------- dmesg: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 1992-1996 FreeBSD Inc.
