I'm not sure that the system doesn't support AHC options but rather my partitions are ruined in consistency matter speaking. I have an Tyan Tomcat III with 2 Pentiums, 64Mb RAM @60ns, AHA2940AU PCI with an Quantum VP32170. Any hints are appreciated. The SCSI system looks like this from the view of a normal kernel: ---------------------- FreeBSD 3.0-SMP #0: Tue Apr 15 23:04:42 EEST 1997 root@warp2.starnets.ro:/usr/src/sys-MP/compile/ADYSMP FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor motherboard cpu0 (BSP): apic id: 0, version: 0x00030010 cpu1 (AP): apic id: 1, version: 0x00030010 io0 (APIC): apic id: 2, version: 0x00170011 Calibrating clock(s) relative to mc146818A clock ... i8254 clock: 1193086 Hz CPU: Pentium (586-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x526 Stepping=6 Features=0x3bf real memory = 67108864 (65536K bytes) avail memory = 62566400 (61100K bytes) Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0 rev 3 on pci0:0:0 chip1 rev 1 on pci0:7:0 chip2 rev 0 on pci0:7:1 vga0 rev 0 int a irq 17 on pci0:19:0 Freeing (NOT implimented) irq 10 for ISA cards. ahc0 rev 1 int a irq 16 on pci0:20:0 Freeing (NOT implimented) irq 11 for ISA cards. ahc0: aic7860 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 3 SCBs ahc0: waiting for scsi devices to settle scbus0 at ahc0 bus 0 sd0 at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 sd0: type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd0: Direct-Access 2069MB (4238640 512 byte sectors) [.........] ------------------------------- and the bogus kernel (with all three options actived): ------------------------------- FreeBSD 3.0-SMP #0: Tue Apr 22 20:24:56 EEST 1997 root@warp2.starnets.ro:/usr/src/sys-MP/compile/ADYSMP FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor motherboard cpu0 (BSP): apic id: 0, version: 0x00030010 cpu1 (AP): apic id: 1, version: 0x00030010 io0 (APIC): apic id: 2, version: 0x00170011 CPU: Pentium (586-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x526 Stepping=6 Features=0x3bf real memory = 67108864 (65536K bytes) avail memory = 63188992 (61708K bytes) Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0 rev 3 on pci0:0:0 chip1 rev 1 on pci0:7:0 chip2 rev 0 on pci0:7:1 vga0 rev 0 int a irq 17 on pci0:19:0 Freeing (NOT implimented) irq 10 for ISA cards. ahc0 rev 1 int a irq 16 on pci0:20:0 Freeing (NOT implimented) irq 11 for ISA cards. ahc0: aic7860 Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 3/8 SCBs ahc0: waiting for scsi devices to settle scbus0 at ahc0 bus 0 ahc0: target 6 Tagged Queuing Device sd0 at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 sd0: type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd0: Direct-Access 2069MB (4238640 512 byte sectors) -------------------------- Please not that Steve Passe already assured me that there should be nothing related to SMP code that might cause problems.
