Hi!

I have some problems to install my Toshiba MK538FB (1.2 GB SCSI 2)-Harddisk.
The system is: 

Asus PCI/I-486SP3G Rev.1.8
with DX4 CPU
and NCR 53810 SCSI
and 16 MB RAM

After booting the kernel say:

...
ncr0 <ncr 53c810 scsi> int a irq 9 on pci0:1
	reg20: virtual=0x2c96000 physical=0xc0000000
ncr0: restart (scsi reset).
ncr0 scanning for targets 0..6 ($Revision: 1.14 $)
ncr0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
ncr0 targ 0 lun 0: type 0(direct) fixed SCSI2
ncr0 targ 0 lun 0: <TOSHIBA MK538FB         6030>
sd0(ncr0:0:0): asynchronous.
sd0(ncr0:0:0): M_REJECT received (0:8)
sd0: could not get size
sd0: 0MB (0 total sec), 0 cyl, 64 head, 32 sec, bytes/sec 512
...
(some error messages...)

Any ideas?!? wrong jumpersettings on harddisk?! toshiba not really SCSI 2?! 

BTW: A Conner SCSI 2 of my friend works very fine!
     the toshiba hd works with Adaptec 1542B very fine too!

Thanx...
