Alrighty.

Ah. Well, i upgraded from 3.0-current w/just kernel sources to
3.0CAM-19980712 with full sources. I don't have a 3.0-current
usr usr.sbin etc source tree to use the patch against. I'll try to
find just 3.0-current sources on the ftp site. I'm still getting
comfortable with fbsd's package/cvs system coming from a
BSDI/linux/solaris background.

Maxed out. Here is the probe:

pci0.19.0

Yes, dual PII 400 BX, not overclocked.

Ok, forgive my ignorance. Does that mean the drive is reporting that
it is not tag queuing capable?
Thanks,
