I'm not sure if you can compile kernels elsewhere.. if you can, can you make one with the scsi debug option turned on, (man 4 scsi) options SCSIDEBUG then in scsi_debug.h set DEBUGTARG and DEBUGLUN to the LUN and target of the device giving problems. this shoul ddump ou tevery SCSI commnad as it is sent etc. then let us know what's up On Sun, 12 Oct 1997, Thomas F.
