During the first write of any install from 2.0.5 thru the current
SNAP, I'm having the following problem:
CONFIG
Asus TP4XE 16M Ram
Adaptec 2940
Dec 4G 5400 SCSI-II drive (255 heads (?), 63 s/t, 486 cyl)
- runs Win95, NextStep, etc. fine
OUTPUT
On the install tty: "panic: Going nowhere without my init."
On the second tty: "ahc_scsi_cmd0:more than 256 DMA segs"
"sd0: oops not queued"
This happens with any part of the install that tries to do a write
to the disk. It appears to read everything okay, it recognizes
my first two partitions just fine, which places my potential
freebsd partition at cyls 345->485.
Thanks for any help!
