Date: 11 Oct 1993 21:27:16 GMT Organization: The University of Waikato Lines: 26 Message-ID: <29cj3k$14si@thebes.cc.waikato.ac.nz> NNTP-Posting-Host: thebes.cc.waikato.ac.nz X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL1] Hi. I'm trying to get a WD7000 working under NetBSD, but I can only get the WD7000 to complete one scsi request, the rest all fail with a timeout. The initial INQUIRY seems to work becuase I get the drive type and manu back, but when I attempt a MODE_SENSE, or DISK_SIZE (0x25) request all I get back are timeouts. Is there something that I have to do besides acknowledge the IRQ with writing to the IRQACK port on the WD7000 before another call can complete properly? Am I missing something severely? I just can't see why the same code will work once, and not work again with a different scsi call... PS. The drives are a Quantum 40Meg, and a Connor 170 (Ummm CP30170 SCSI1) drives. ... The card is being initialised at address 7, and the drives are at 0 and 1... -- ====================================================================== | Hamish Marson | | Systems Programmer | | | Computer Services | INTERNET h.marson@waikato.ac.nz | | University of Waikato | PHONE +64 7 8562889 xt 8181 | | New Zealand | FAX +64 7 8384066 | ===========Disclaimer :- Remember.
