>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE boot.flp
	ASUS TX97-E + 200 MHz CPU
	NCR-5c810 SCSI host adapter
	NCR-5c875 SCSI host adapter

>Description:

	installation panic before starting the MENU if the hardware
	configuration is in (1):

(1)	NCR-5c810 SCSI host adapter with no disk
	NCR-5c875 SCSI host adapter with some wide-fast SCSI drives

Following combinations are WORKING:
(2)	NCR-5c810 SCSI host adapter with some drives
	NCR-5c875 SCSI host adapter with no disk

(3)	just NCR-5c810 SCSI host adapter with some drives
or
(4)	just NCR-5c875 SCSI host adapter with some wide-fast SCSI drives

	we can use (4) to install FreeBSD 2.2.5. After installation, put
	NCR-5c810 SCSI host adapter back in, and everything works fine.
	So, it sounds like the problem is on boot.flp.


>How-To-Repeat:

	Use above SCSI adapters and combinations to see the boot.flp
	panic only in (1) condition.

>Fix:
