I have an intermittent problem with an Adaptec 1542 and a pretty new
NEC CDR-222 4x CDROM.  The system frequently hangs while doing CDROM
access and the FreeBSD driver scribbles something on the screen to the
effect of AHA (0:6:0) has timed out (ID 6 is the CDROM).  Has anyone
else seen this noise.  I rather doubt its the CDROM since its new and
seems to work fine under other OSs.

Tnx in advance...
