Hmm, that Toshiba is quite an old drive, I think.
Look at around line 6516 in "/sys/i386/pci/ncr.c".
static struct table_entry device_tab[] =
{
{"SONY", "SDT-5000", "3.17", QUIRK_NOMSG},
{"WangDAT", "Model 2600", "01.7", QUIRK_NOMSG},
{"WangDAT", "Model 3200", "02.2", QUIRK_NOMSG},
{"WangDAT", "Model 1300", "02.4", QUIRK_NOMSG},
/***/ {"TOSHIBA", "MK538FB", "6030", QUIRK_NOMSG},
{"", "", "", 0} /* catch all: must be last entry. */
};
Add the line marked /***/ above, rebuild your kernel
and try again. (You seem to have access to another
system to do this on. Else I'll make a patched kernel
available via FTP).
