Message-ID: <1009334.26030.7493@kcbbs.gen.nz> From: dgd@kcbbs.gen.nz (David Dix) Date: 4 Feb 93 07:13:50 GMT Organization: Kappa Crucis Unix BBS, Auckland, New Zealand Lines: 26 No responses from my previous message about the Buslogic 742a scsi controller. I cannot get the 386bsd boot up process to complete when using the 742a in my Micronics eisa system. With a 1542b it works ok but with the 742a it gets as far as the line: starting network daemons: routed then dies. I then get timeout messages from the 742a driver and nothing more :-( I have tried just about every config option for the 742a but always the same place and it gets timeouts. When using the 1542b kernel with the 742a the same error occurs, same place same timeouts. What I would like to know is if anyone else is using a 742a in an eisa bus machine and what setup for the 742a is actually working. I am using Julians scsi driver with the supplied bt742a.c driver. I have also tried a Bustek 747S scsi controller and it does exactly the same thing. Someone please tell me what the 742a setup should be Thanks. dgd.
