Subject: Problems with tosha on alpha

When I run tosha on my fairly current alpha with a SCSI CD-ROM and
an Adaptec 2940, it reads the table of contents just fine, but when
I start reading a track, it panics the system. I get:
cd1(ahc0:6:0): timed out in datain phase, SCSISIGI == 0x44
cd1(ahc0:6:0): asserted ATN - device reset in message buffer
cd1(ahc0:6:0): host adapter code inconsistency
panic: ahc0: Timed-out command times out again

This happens on two different SCSI CD-ROM drives:
ahc0:A:0: refuses WIDE negotiation. Using 8bit transfers
ahc0: target 0 synchronous at 8.0MHz, offset = 0xf
cd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <, CD-R/RW RW7040S, 1.10> SCSI2 5/cdrom removable
ahc0:A:6: refuses WIDE negotiation. Using 8bit transfers
ahc0: target 6 synchronous at 4.4MHz, offset = 0x8
cd1 at scsibus0 targ 6 lun 0: <PIONEER, CD-ROM DR-124X, 1.01> SCSI2 5/cdrom removable
The latter drive works fine with tosha on a fairly current i386
system using an NCR 53c820. I'll try dropping that card in my alpha
and see if it makes a difference. However, if anyone can fix this,
I'd appreciate it. I'm happy to do testing and whatnot, and I can
even make the system (with a serial console) available across a
reasonably fast Internet connection.
