I have looked all over the web (FAQ's, > etc.) Looking into the archive of the freebsd-scsi mailing list should have got you the right pointer: you gotta turn off SCSI tagged command queuing for the HP drive; tagged commands simply don't work for them. In -current, the kernel option ``FAILSAFE'' (that is also there in the GENERIC kernel, for just that reason) does this for you. You can also turn tagged command queuing off by setting SCSI_NCR_DFLT_TAGS to 0 (in the kernel config file, or inside sys/pci/ncr.c). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
