Subject:   Problems with second Adaptec (39160) card: System hangs during boot
Message-ID:  <20001214212831.EB65DDE81@mail.cise.ufl.edu>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

I've recently tried installing an Adaptec 39160 card into one of my 
FreeBSD servers, however, about halfway through the boot process, the 
system hangs. Here's (hopefully) the relevant parts of the boot 
sequence:

----------------------------

If I remove the card, the system continues on past this point:

----------------------------

I have the following options set:

	options         DDB
	options         BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER       #a BREAK on a comconsole goes to

however, the system doesn't respond to a break on the serial console at this
point. If the keyboard is plugged in, however, it will reboot after a <Ctrl>
<Alt><Del> .

It seems that both cards are using irq 11 for one or both channels. I don't
know if this is the problem, and if it is, if there's anything I can do
about it.

If anyone needs more info, I can supply it.
