The words of encouragement were as helpful as the suggestions. I'm getting some flakey results, and I was wondering if someone could tell me where they think they're coming from. Now, whenever I try to decompress a large file onto the Jaz drive, the file will uncompress, than after a few seconds, my machine will hang and reboot. 8( The latest instance that I can think of is when I was uncompressing the netcon tarball earlier today. I think that it may be the PAS16 SCSI interface that's causing a bottleneck somewhere, or it may need to be tweaked. For some reason, I'm getting parity errors and dma timeouts from nca0. I've included the relevant dmesg output at the bottom of this message. Any and all pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance... --Jerry 8) Jerry Alexandratos % "Nothing inhabits my (8 8) darkstar@strauss.udel.edu % thoughts, and oblivion (8 8) darkstar@canary.pearson.udel.edu % drives my desires."
