Note: I am not in the freebsd mailing lists. I am just a user.

I am stuck on FreeBSD 2.2.8 because I need support for removable
SCSI controllers, which is absent in FreeBSD 3.x. I had set my
hopes on FreeBSD 4.0 but am running into a problem.

Hardware is ThinkPad 600 and Adaptec SlimSCSI 1460B.  Works like
a champ with FreeBSD 2.2.8.  Not so with FreeBSD 4.0. Complete
dmesg output is attached at the end of this mail.

I need to get away from 2.2.8 because its Linux emulation cannot
handle Star Office. But I cannot give up removable SCSI support.
The option I see now is to give up FreeBSD in favor of Linux.

I have the following removable devices:

    - Removable ethernet. Works on IRQ 3 and IRQ 9.

    - Removable modem. Works on IRQ 3 and IRQ 9.

    - Removable SCSI controller. Recognized but unusable on IRQ 3 and 9.

With FreeBSD 2.2.8, the removable SCSI controller and the external
JAZ disk are recognized immediately.

With FreeBSD 4.0, no SCSI device is recognized, and the machine
locks up after "camcontrol rescan 0" or "camcontrol rescan scbus".

    # camcontrol rescan 0 ((with aic1 on irq 9)
    (probe0:aic1:0:0:0): ccb 0xc0addc00 - timed out, phase 0xa6, state 1

Here's another attempt:

    (probe0:aic1:0:0:0): ccb 0xc0aeb800 - timed out, phase 0xa6, state 1

and the machine locks up again.

I have been a devoted FreeBSD user from the 386bsd days. I like
running a real operating system. 

I really need to upgrade because 2.2.8's Linux emulation is not
good enough for Star Office. I also need removable SCSI support.

I know all this works with Linux. There's a box sitting on my desk,
ready to blow away FreeBSD forever. That would be a shame.
