I am running FreeBSD 1.0 Release with NO PATCHES at all--straight from the ftp site! I am using the ALTWD Kernel though. I have an Adaptec 1542C SCSI controller and am having trouble with thefollowing devices Maynard Maynstream 2200HS Toshiba CD-Rom TXM-3301A1 The Maynard tape drive just causes some very strange problems such as! During initial boot it will just scan the tape forever, and then finally time out and cause all other SCSI operations to become very weird. If I tape the tape out while booting, it boots just fine, then when I put a tape in and try to access it, I get an error from the system. I can't remember which one..DAMN! But there it is..If anyone has any clue what could be going on, I'd appreciate it! The Toshiba CD-Rom drive just gives me a device not configured whenever I try to mount it. I have tried both things: mount -t isofs /dev/cd0a /mnt and mount -t isofs /dev/cd0d /mnt Both to no avail. The system says that the drive isn't ready and is empty on bootup even though there's a disc inside. Someone using NetBSD said he had the same problem, but was able to mount it just fine under NetBSD. Any help will surely be appreciated as always.. Thanks.. ..Sal ************************************************************* *Salvatore Collora System Administrator* *Loyola Marymount University Network Consultant * *Phone 310-338-7719 Fax 310-338-7717 * *************************************************************
