Subject: 1.3 does not seem to grok my adaptec scsi card

Hi all,

I recently (last night) down-loaded the floppy image for NetBSD 1.3
for the i386.  The file I got was boot.fs.gz.

When I try to boot my machine with this floppy, I get errors
associated with the adaptec controller driver.  Basically, ahc1 reports
timeout errors.  This machine boots and runs fine under 1.2.1.  Does
anyone know of some obvious thing that I'm missing?  Below, I've included
dmesg output from the 1.2.1 boot sequence to provide the information
on the types of chip, controller, and devices I have installed on this
machine.  Note that I have both a SCSI dat drive and a SCSI CD-ROM
installed on this machine.  There is also a pnp Soundblaster card that
is not recognized by the 1.2.1 boot sequence.

Any help would be appreciated,
Allan
