I'm having a panic situation on a fresh install to a 2 gig SCSI disk, as shown below, equipment detailed below. 2.2.8-RELEASE already works fine on this machine, although sans SCSI. I had no disk problems when doing the installation. As an added, possibly-related note, when I first tried the install, and brought up the built-in fxp0 from the install screen, the box froze and had to be power-cycled. I can duplicate the panic problem, as I've done the install three times now with identical results. Is there anything I can do here? Is it because there's a wd0 in front of da0 (wd0 boots first, I then F5, F1 to get it to go 3.1)? Is it because I'm trying to boot channel B and not channel A? I don't have any wide drives, I've just inherited the Micropolis, and channel B is the only with a narrow connector. The Micropolis verifies fine in the Adaptec BIOS.
