5000/200 is correct

Just to be sure I downloaded -current (via sup from sup.de.netbsd.org)
today. Build GENERIC, booted and:

after less then a minute of heavy disk activity I get:
                                                                                
asc_intr: ignoring strange interrupt tc 8148 fifo residue 3 script 1
                                                                                
followed within one minute with (these did not appear in kernellog,
just on the console)               :
                                                                                
asc0: SCSI device 1: gross error                                                
rebooting...

I am ready to test any kernel - just give me one or two days to download.

Any ideas???
