The machine was originally installed with a 10Gb SCSI Drive and an Adaptec AHA-2940UW SCSI controller. When I originally installed FreeBSD Realease 4.4, the machine would not reboot after the installation process, but would only start after a cold boot. It would get stuck while trying to load the SCSI bios. I upgraded the SCSI controller bios from 1.3 to 2.20, but this did not help. After this, I started from scratch with a new installation of Release 4.5, but the problem still occured. The problem occured with Release 4.5 as well. I tried to install the FreeBSD boot manager, and the Standard MBR, but the problem always occurs. >How-To-Repeat: The problem always occurs when sysinstall tries to reboot the machine or when the command "shutdown -r now" is issued. >Fix: The machine reboots with the SCSI drive removed and the OS intalled on a Western Digital IDE drive. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
