I started seeing this behavior also, but it started when I swapped drives from a dead Via dual chipset board machine (MSI 694D Pro, I think) into an athlon machine with an Asus A7Vsomething. I can get correct model numbers, etc. if helpful. This is a 4.8-RELEASE installation. I had to reboot the first time with an old 4.4 GENERIC leftover from installation, and I saw no errors, but after compiling a uniprocessor kernel I started seeing the above behavior. Although, I left it for awhile and eventually the machine does boot after about 30 of the MODE_SENSE_BIG, resetting devices lines. -Will _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
