Using FreeBSD 2.2.2 produces a lot of errors when booting. I switched these days from FreeBSD 2.1.7.1 to FreeBSD 2.2.2 and my NCR 53C810 SCSI controler did its work well until the switch. Sometimes when I must reboot the system this error occurs like ncr0(0:0:0) FATAL ERROR and so on. I think its a kernel problem and it should be possible to change some parameter to solve this problem. An other problem occurs with my Wangtek ES5525 tape drive. When I made the last backup under FreeBSD 2.1.7.1 all things seemed to be clear, now I can not load the backup from tape. The drives move shortly forward, then backward, then forward again - like dancing, then, after a while, an error occurs like bad block at ... What happened to my drive? I think this is maybe a kernelproblem, too. If anybody can help, I would appreciate any kind of help. Thanks in advance O.
