I'm using 2.2.6-release without the PAO. The devices are recognized by the scsi card (although after a ~30 sec delay during which my laptop is completly frozen). After that, no response (mount, disklabel...) from the device (tried Zip drive and then a CDROM). I was about to get some new SCSI cables to do some more tests. Anyone has a working setup with an Adaptec 1460A SlimSCSI ? Florent. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
