 I have a FreeBSD 2.2.6 system and I'm trying to install a HP SureStore
DAT 5000i tape drive with an Adaptec 1502B SCSI card. I am fairly sure
that my kernel is configured properly (default) and infact both the card
and tape drive are detected properly (shown below) but when I try and
execute any command involving the tape drive (like tar -tvf /dev/rst0 or
mt status) I get the following message several times: 

st0(aic0:2:0): timed out

  What am I doing wrong?? Here's the relevant boot info, if seems to be
detecting everything properly.

aic0 at 0x340-0x35f irq 11 on isa
aic0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
(aic0:2:0): "HP HP35480A T603" type 1 removable SCSI 2
st0(aic0:2:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, variable blocks,
write-enabled

  Thanks for any help! Ben
