I've been trying to solve a SCSI problem by myself for quiete a long time now.
I'm not able to install FreeBSD on this machine with a AHC 2940 card and a 9Gb HD. (even tried linux to be sure it wasn't freebsd driver that was screwed up)
So today I tried the following: use an IDE 8Gb HD to install FBSD 5.0 and then plug the SCSI drive to create a partition and mount it. Everything went smooth until I started copying file to the mount point of the 9Gb SCSI HD.
I first copied /bin to /newhd and it did it without any trouble. I was really suprised that it was working so I decided to copy something bigger to make sure it was NOT working :) So I copied /usr to /newhd and it crashed. I was pretty sure the errors messages would be in /var/log/messages so I rebooted the computer and saw that I was completely wrong.
Actually it started copying file and ended with a bunch of errors followed by a disk syncing (like when you shut down your comp).
I have already tried to change the cable so it should no be the problem.
Now, is there a way to log the error messages so I can tell you exactly what I get so you can (maybe and hopefully) help me ?
Thanx!
