Greetings,

Question... are there known problems with 
3.4-RELEASE and Adaptec 152x SCSI host adapters?

I've been trying to install with an Adaptec 1510 
and it never gets past "waiting" for scsi devices 
to settle.  I get time out messages.

So I try my DTC Host adapter (behaves like a 1520), 
it does get past the scsi probe and into sysinstall.  
However, when sysinstall attempts to retrieve data
from the CDROM the first time, I get a mount error.

After much wailing and gnashing of teeth I pull out
2.2.8-RELEASE and wham bam, it works great.

I'm coming to the conclusion that if I want to use
my Adaptec 152x HAs, I better stick with 2.2.8, 
unless someone can give me a dope slap and tell me
what's wrong.  Or maybe 4.0 is the answer?  

Many TIA!
