Date: 25 Feb 1995 13:25:52 GMT Organization: University of Cape Town Lines: 32 Message-ID: <3inb50$3l6@ucthpx.uct.ac.za> NNTP-Posting-Host: cs.uct.ac.za X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hello I've been trying to install FreeBSD release 2.0 for the past couple of days. I can get it working alright on my IDE boot drive, but cannot get it to recognise my SCSI hard drive. I think it has to do with the PCI setup or something along those lines. When the device detection takes place, I get the following errors regarding my PCI bus: [...] pci0: scanning device 0..31, mechanism=1. pci0:0: vendor=0x1080, device=0x600, class=bridge [not supported] graphics0 <display device> int a (config) not bound on pci0:1 ncr0 <ncr 53c810 scsi> int a (config) not bound on pci0:2 reg20: virtual=0xf2afe000 physical=0xc0000000 CACHE TEST FAILED: host wrote 1, ncr read -1. CACHE TEST FAILED: ncr wrote 2, host read 1. CACHE TEST FAILED: ncr wrote 2, read back -1. CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED. pci uses physical addresses from 0xc0000000 to 0xc0001000 [...] What exactly is going on here? Is FreeBSD refusing to recognise my PCI setup as a whole, or just the SCSI controller? What does it mean by "class=bridge [not supported]" ? And what does the "not bound on pci0:#" mean? If you have any ideas on how I can remedy this situation, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you for you consideration. Richard Tanner-Tremaine. (email responses preferred: rtannert@cs.uct.ac.za)
