I found the probleme and the solution.
The kernel was build to use irq 11 but my 1515 scsi controler was 
jumpered to user irq 12. Rebuild the kernel with correct irq. solve the
problem.

Now I got another one:
>newfs /dev/rsd0s2 
newfs: ioctl (GDINFO): Invalid argument
newfs: /dev/rsd0s2: can't read disk label; disk type must be specified
But I can make disklabel:
disklabel: ioctl DIOCWDINFO: Operation not supported by device

So what ?

S.R.


PS: somewone know why lots of 2.1.5 package had disapers from all 
freebsd site ? ( eg: knews, xcolor, etc)
