Greetings FreeBSD'ers,

I have a SCSI drive which currenty has both a DOS and a BSDI v1.1 partition
on it.  I want to replace BSDI with freebsd but when I boot from the 2.1
boot floppy, my boot drive (SCSI ID=0) is not recognized and the following
error is displayed:

 (bt0:0:0): ABORTED COMMAND asc:4e,0 Overlapped commands attempted field
 replacement unit: 1


I'm using a Buslogic BT747 SCSI host adapter.  The drive is a Seagate ST12550N
2.1G "Barracuda".  I made sure both ends of the SCSI cable are terminated.  
Does anyone know what this message means and how I can fix the problem?

Regards,

-Gary
