Pardon me if this is a "known issue" but I haven't seen anything on it
anywhere, so far.

I installed FBSD 4.1 on a 2.1 gig SCSI drive using a Qlogic 1080 PCI SCSI
card, 68-pin cable, etc.  That all works fine.

But as soon as I hook up my 36.4 gig drive, it goes to hell.  Right after
the "Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle," it goes into a kernel
panic.  An integer divide error while in kernel mode.

Since everything else works fine - card/drive diagnostics, etc. - and even
lowly DOS 6.22 can see the drive okay (8 gig of it, anyway), and partition
and format it (2.1 gig at a time), my guess is that something in the QLC
drivers isn't right.

Is there some way to get a message to whoever might be managing the QLC
drivers now, to see if there's a problem that needs to be fixed?
