Then try to make a new kernel with DDB.

Try to use the just posted new versions of his SCSI tape driver stuff. If you are having timeout out panics with the SCSI stuff: I've heart of this problem before and *every* time it was due to an incorrect placement of terminators. >Sigh.... >I should also note that I am running on a 486-50DX, and >get bunch'o ISA stray interrupt 0xff, or 0x1ff messages too. That is due to your hardware. These interrupts were happening too with your pre-2.3.3 kernels, though as of 2.3.3 they are reported. >cam@claircom.com Hope this helps, -Guido -- Guido van Rooij | Internet: guido@gvr.win.tue.nl Bisschopsmolen 16 | Phone: ++31.40.461433 5612 DS Eindhoven | ((12+144+20)+3*sqrt(4))/7 The Netherlands | +(5*11)=9^2+0
