This is good since it means that Int 0x15 Func 0xc0 detects non-PS/2 machines correctly. The 'BIOS SDT: ...' lines are what we're looking at for this. Since you were good enough to capture an entire verbose boot and transcribed the config of all your cards I'll be able to get working on the Buslogic probe/attach bits. > It is currently running NT4 (SP5) with all the adapters in it recognised > and supported.

I know there are some issues with DMA channels. Did I maybe forget to mention adding the line to sys/i386/conf/files.i386? i386/mca/aha_mca.c optional mca aha Add that and make sure you have: controller aha0 to your config file. I should probably compile the MCA bus support as a module and compile the drivers as modules as well to make testing a tad easier. > In case it helps, here is what is in the machine: > > Motherboard - 8Mb RAM, com1, lpt1, standard VGA > > slot 1 - Hypertec HyperPort [3 serial, 1 parallel] > port: 2f8 irq 3 [only com2 is enabled] > > slot 2 - AHA-1640 SCSI Host Adapter > port: 330 irq 15 dma 4 rom dc00 > > slot 3 - Hyperam MC 32/16 [32Mb RAM] > EMS window: c000-c3ff > > slot 4 - 3Com EtherLink/MC > port: 300 irq 12 rom c800 > > slot 5 - Hyperam MC 32/16 [23Mb RAM] > EMS window: c400-c7ff > > slot 6 - BusLogic 32bit BusMaster MCA-to-SCSI Host Adapter (v1.42a) > port: 334 irq 14 dma 5 > > slot 7 - BusLogic...[same as above] > port: 234 irq 11 dma 6 > > slot 8 - BusLogic...[same as above] > port: 134 irq 10 dma 7 > > [there are 11 scsi disks spread across the 4 controllers] > > > And now finally to the nitty-gritty: > > Here is the output from a successfull boot: > > [options KBDIO_DEBUG, NPX_DEBUG, DIAGNOSTIC, DEBUG are also in kernel] > > [start script] > Console: serial port > BIOS drive A: is disk0 > BIOS drive C: is disk1 > BIOS drive D: is disk2 > > FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 0.7 639/63488kB > (jkh@cathair, Tue May 18 03:22:02 GMT 1999) > kernel text=0x1289fb data=0x1c478+0x19d5c syms=[0x4+0x1e780+0x4+0x201fb] > > Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: > > Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. > Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds... > > Type '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help. > disk0s4a:> > disk0s4a:> boot -v > Copyright (c) 1992-1999 The FreeBSD Project. > Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 > The Regents of the University of California.
