scott-

after additional trials, i've found that my server takes on average 10-15 m=
inutes to boot with 2 mylex extremeraid controllers attached. 1 controller =
has 1 disk array on it, the other has 2. itz not unbearably long to wait i =
guess but i just don't understand why it should take several minutes when t=
he same controllers and disks initialize with the driver under linux in aro=
und 30 seconds.

while labeling the disks i've seen the following messages:

(da5:mly1:4:1:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE. CDB: 35 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0=20
(da5:mly1:4:1:0): error code 0
(da4:mly1:4:0:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE. CDB: 35 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0=20
(da4:mly1:4:0:0): error code 0
(da5:mly1:4:1:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE. CDB: 35 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0=20
(da5:mly1:4:1:0): error code 0

could this be due to disk arrays that aren't yet initialized? is it possibl=
e to run background initialization with this driver while the operating sys=
tem is running? again... i'm running fbsd 4.7 release on x86.
