siop. See below.

With esiop, nothing works : probe fails, invalid opcodes, etc.

I am really sure the problem is with SCSI.

A snapshot of 1.5ZC, or 1.6BETA does not even install, it hangs in mkfs.

I build a 1.6D kernel with RAID support removed, I booted, but crashed when
supping the sources.

Crashes are always related to disk activity.

I give up, I cannot waste an entire week making this box working. I'll try
FreeBSD :-(


For info, here are the respective dmesg with 1.5.2 and 1.6D (1.6D is a generic
kernel, with Raidframe disabled, that's all)

Thanks, anyway.
