When I installed my FreeBSD from tape it would only work when I didn't insert a tape during boot (from floppy), and not always then. After some tries I could install the system. Now I'd like to make backups using my streamer, but I get the following messages: st0(nrc0:2:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST st0: cannot select requested mode The SCSI controller is a NCR810 (PCI). I don't have a SCSI drive attached at the moment, just the Archive Viper using ID2: the drive is properly terminated. During boot, I get the following messages: Sep 25 00:42:23 waldorf /kernel: Probing for devices on the pci0 bus: Sep 25 00:42:23 waldorf /kernel: configuration mode 2 allows 16 devices.

The drive works perfectly using OS/2 and Linux. Thanks in advance for any replies. -- E-Mail: geert@sun3.iaf.nl Phone: +31-53-303054
