Hello,
there is a big problem (at least for me) with SCSI HDDs.
There is a PC with Adaptec AIC-7850 on board. There are three
HDDs attached to the SCSI-2 bus:
ID
----------------------------
0 Conner CFP1080S (SCSI terminated)
1 Quantum Lightning 540S (SCSI not terminated)
2 Conner CFP2105S (SCSI not terminated)
7 AIC-7850 (SCSI terminated)
When FreeBSD 2.1 is booted (I booted by means of install.bat/inst_ide.bat
under DOS), it detects ahc0, waits "SCSI deviced to settle", then shows
list of disks' data, and then about 10-15 copies of the string
"ahc0 WARNING no command for scb 0"
and goes to reboot.
When the HDD with ID 2 is detached from the bus (by removing cabling),
FreeBSD boots ok. Besides this I tried to insert/remove terminators
on the HDD, but the problem persists.
The HDD with ID 2 was installed yesterday and there ar 3 partitions
on it, first one is used by OS/2, on second one NT is installed. The
HDD workes fine under those OS. So the hardware configuration seems
to be proper.
Could you please provide any possible solutions for the problem ?
Thanks in advance. Dima.
