FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE trying to use two:

ahc0: <Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter> port 0xb800-0xb8ff mem
0xf2800000-0xf2800fff irq 9 at device 10.0 on pci2 aic7892: Ultra160
Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/255 SCBs

ahc1: <Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter> port 0xb400-0xb4ff mem
0xf2000000-0xf2000fff irq 9 at device 11.0 on pci2 aic7892: Ultra160
Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/255 SCBs

With the first controller supporting 2 IBM disks, and the second
supporting 4 IBM disks, like so:

da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <IBM DDYS-T18350N S96H> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device 
da0: 160.000MB/s transfers (80.000MHz, offset 63, 16bit), Tagged Queueing

I get SCSI parity errors trying to disklabel the last drive on the
2nd card (da5). 

When I do something "clever" like moving that da5 to the end of the
first controller (ahc0), the machine fails to boot off of da0. 

Suspecting the disk, I checked and scanned da5 by the BIOS verify
utility. It's perfectly fine. Interestingly enough, the following:

  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rda5s1

produces no errors.

The version of adaptec BIOS I am using is 3.10.0. 

Anyone have any clues as to what is going on...before I completely
replace these controller cards? ;)
