Meaning that if I use the EEROMCFG.EXE utility*) and set everything to FAST-10 mode (as opposed to UltraSCSI) the system at least boots OK. I.e. it does not panic anymore: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/dda0 at isp0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <IBM DDRS-34560W S97B> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 3.906MB/s transfers (1.953MHz, offset 8, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 4357MB (8925000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 555C) a0a WARNING: preposterous clock chip time -- CHECK AND RESET THE DATE! swapon: adding /dev/da0b as swap device etc. I'm not too thrilled about the negotiated SCSI parameters, but it sure beats a panic ;-) Wilko *) run from the ARC console which was in turn booted from floppy; cute that the board does not have both ARC and SRM onboard at the same time.
