Hey all, I'm running a 3.2-STABLE kernel dated May 16, 20:37 EDT. I've got an Adaptec 2940 w/ an old Conner Python DDS/DC 4mm DAT drive (scsi ID 2) and an external Zip drive (ID 5). I upgraded earlier today from a May 8th kernel (and yes I did make the world). Since the update, when it gets to the point of waiting 15 seconds for scsi devices to settle, it waits for about 15 seconds and spontaneously reboots. Everytime like clockwork. However, if I unplug the external Zip drive and fix up the termination, the machine boots fine. I've checked the cables, the termination, etc. The bus is well within the maximum cable length. And, of course, it worked just fine with last week's code. My guess is there is some issue with the new ahc/aic7xxx code that was MFC'd on May 15th. I'd be happy to provide any additional information I can, but as the machine hasn't even booted yet when the problem occurs I don't have any core dumps or back traces to provide.
