Is this something I should be > worrying about? If you are running an older version of fbsd, and using adaptec controller(s), you should upgrade. I experienced problems with a streamer and encountered among other, similiar kernel messages on fbsd 2.2.2 .. I upgraded to 2.2.6 and it seems to have solved the problems.. I think there may be quite a diffence/enhancements/bugfixes in alot of the adaptec code from the older versions compared to the current stable.
