Yesterday I installed Julian Elischers (thank you, Julian), scsibeta2.1 release because my DAT tape (DEC TLZ04) was never recognized by the as driver. With the above SCSI driver it is recognized. But I have a strange behaviour when booting. I always get no swap space present (yet) and later: savecore: device not configured as0b. I could not figure out where this string occurs in the kernel code. I did a strings 386bsd and the only string 'as' was in wdswfdwtas (or something like ) which I located in autoconf.c. The new driver is using sd0 instead of as0. I'm not using wd0 (wdc0) in my config file. Should I? Presently I don't know whether my system is using swap space at all. Following the messages it does not but I did a lot of kernel builds etc. on the system without problems. I'd rather solve this problem than continue to live with it. Any help/comments etc. are much appreciated. -- --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@acds.physik.rwth-aachen.de *** Error code 1 Stop.
