Hello, I had similar problems with 1210SA controller. As I know this controller is a little defective and it is not supported correctly by FreeBSD. There were a lot of discussions about issues with Adaptec 1210SA and SiI 3112- based controllers, but all of these discussions didn't give a solution. In other words I don't know how to solve this problem. I guess only the way is to throw it out of the window :( -- Kind Regards, Alexander Shikoff [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mob.: +380 67 946 31 49 _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
