Hello Family, I have a dual-boot box running FreeBSD-6.1 and SuSE-10.0 and I "had" a SCSI HP-9100 CDRW and took it out to put in a CD/DVD drive. I have three drives and a Plextor CD-RW/DVD-RW drive so all my controllers were used so I grabbed a Promise controller. ######################################################## Promise Technology, Inc. PDC20268 (Ultra100 TX2) (rev 02) (prog-if 85) Subsystem: Promise Technology, Inc. Ultra100TX2 ######################################################## The first setup (SCSI HP-9100) worked on both OS's but now with the Promise card, only SuSE-10.0 works. If I boot into FreeBSD-6.1 the system lasts only about 4 to 5 minutes then completely crashes, zilch, nothing. FreeBSD was my default OS on that box and I'm wondering if there is any kernel flags/options that I can load real quick to get the box stable enough to see what has gone wrong. Once again I know the controller is fine, used it before on other boxes and it's been running fine and I've been using the CD/DVD drive hanging off the controller all last night and today.
