Hello,
  I have two systems running BSDI with Adaptec 2940 controller. One is running
2.1 and the other is running the last beta of 3.0.
  I had 2 4GB disks on the 2.1 system. I moved them to the 3.0 system, and here
is the result:

aic1 at pci0 irq 10 maddr 0xffbef000-0xffbef0ff
aic1: initiator id 7, parity enabled
aic1: delaying to permit certain devices to finish self-test
tg2 at aic1 target 0: with disconnect, no tag queueing, synchronous @ 10.0MB/s
sd2 at tg2 unit 0: disk: HP C3325A rev 5293 (SCSI-2) 4238836*512
tg3 at aic1 target 2tg3: unexpected extended message 1: with disconnect, no tag queueing, synchronous @ 10.0MB/s
sd3 at tg3 unit 0: disk: IBM OEM DFHSS4F rev 4141 (SCSI-2) 8813870*512
tg4 at aic1 target 4tg4: unexpected extended message 1: with disconnect, no tag queueing, synchronous @ 10.0MB/s
sd4 at tg4 unit 0: disk: IBM OEM DFHSS4F rev 3636 (SCSI-2) 8813870*512

For the IBM disks (the 4GB ones) I get "unexpected extended message 1".
Disksetup also cannot write the label (write returns 0 bytes written) while a
simple "cat > /dev/rsd3c" writes the contents (I see it back with "cat
/dev...").
  Any idea?
                                      Thanks! __Yehavi:
