I recently replaced my 1542b with a pci ncr53c810 controller.

I was hoping to install 2.0r again but i get the following error:

ncr0 < ncr53x810> inta, irq10 on pci0:9
reg20: virtual 0xf3166000
physical 0xc0000000
Core test failed: host wrote 1, ncr read 1
Core test failed: ncr wrote 2, host read 1
Core test failed: ncr wrote 2, host read -1
Cache incorrectly configured.

other hardware:

Asus pvi486ap4
ati graphix expression 2 meg pci
isa io controller
Gravis ultrasound max.

What does the error mean & how can i work around it?
