I have just purchased a new system to run FreeBSD and I pulled the SCSI
ZIP drive (using the ZIP Zoom card) I had in my old system (a dual-boot
FreeBSD/Win95 system) and put it in there.

I did not change any of the hardware configuration on the ZIP drive or
card however, and I rebuilt the kernel on this system for support for the
ZIP Zoom card.  It even recognizes it fine at start up.  However, when I
try to mount or otherwise reference (cat, etc) the device (sd0), the
command just hangs and when I go to kill the process from another
terminal, the process won't die.  Eventually, I start seeing console
messages saying aic(0:5:0) timed out and it will keep trying.

The output of dmesg doesn't show any obvious IRQ or I/O address conflicts
at boot time.

The rest of my configuration looks like this:
	K6-3D-266
	128M RAM
	6.4G (Western Digital) HD (primary master)
	1.2G (Western Digital) HD (secondary master)
	36x CDROM drive
	Matrox Millenium 2 PCI card
	NE2000 clone 10/100 card
	Sound Blaster 16

This same drive and card worked fine under FreeBSD in the other system
just last night.

Does anyone know what might be wrong?

Thanks, Jamie
