In my mind there is always the possibility of a problem being a pebkac but this problem only occurs with FreeBSD. The SCSI controller works fine when I load RedHat Fedora Core 3 or Windows 2000 Pro. Unfortunately I don't know much about FreeBSD to do much trouble shooting myself so I might just have to go with another OS on this specific server.

A system that works is more useful to you than one which doesn't-- maybe that would be best.

Thanks again for taking time to reply.

There are people who are a lot more expert than I at interpreting Adaptec card dumps lurking on these lists, but honestly, there isn't much here to go on.


My first take would have been to double-check the cabling, and retest the hardware in another machine. But if the hardware seems to work using another OS, well, the easy answers are out. I might try disabling your ATA controller entirely, if you are not using it, to remove the first error message...
