Panic occures durring boot of install.
>Description:
This is the long story: We had such great success with using FreeBSD 2.2.7 on a "Pull together from scrap - PC" that the server became an essential part of our testing lab infrastructure. Now as we are improving our lab we decided to try giving FreeBSD a real server machine.

The machine we are planning on hosting FreeBSD 3.2 on is a Server style PC. Intel S450NX MP motherboard (as far as I can tell). It has a Symbios 53c810 & a Symbios 53C896 (the 53c896 appears to be dual 53c896's) built onto the motherboard. It also has an Adaptec 2940 PCI card. It has 2 500 Mhz Pentium III - Xeon processors with one GIG of RAM. I've tried several configurations, but when I leave the Symbios controllers on I get a Panic during the boot from CD right after the 15 second wait for SCSI to settle. The panic line looks like:
Assertion  "target==ccb->ccb.h.target_id" failed:file "../../pci/ncr.c,line 5097". 

I currently have the CD connected to the Adaptec controller and the SCSI disks connected to the Symbios controller. I was unable to get it to attempt to boot having all SCSI devices connected to the Adaptec controller with the Symbios disabled. This box is supported by NCR with LINUX installed. I'll contact someone at the factory to determine what that configuration is. I'll be playing with this over time. That's why I listed this as a medium priority. Any suggestions as to Symbios configurations would be appreciated.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to boot (install the os) from the CD.
