If you're going to review FreeBSD, how about using a version more recent? FreeBSD 2.1 has been out for months now and 2.1.5 is due any day now. > = CD ROM = > Plextor 6X SCSI controlled by Adaptec AHA2940 If you experience any problems with the Adaptec 2940, upgrade to 2.1-stable or wait for the 2.1.5 release. THere were a lot of bug fixes and improvements in the driver for the 2940 controller. Dan Eischen deischen@iworks.InterWorks.org
