I made the change to the -stable code, recompiled and it still hangs at boot if and only wide negotiation is enabled in SCSI-Select for my narrow devices. Just like before. BTW, it hangs at boot after finding the wide device and before it displays anything about the narrow devices. Both of these problems only show up on the narrow devices and works fine for the wide Seagate. I've also tried each of the kernels around the dates where each problem started with the same results. The boot problem showed up around 1/7-1/8 and the other shows up around 3/10-3/11. Do need me to send anything like diffs between these kernels I've tried? Is anyone running a combination of wide and narrow devices on the 2940UW running the newer -stable kernels without problems? George george@cia-g.com
