well.. i installed the new SCSI_TEST kernel (had to take the one
off of netbsd.org, dont have the diskspace..)  and i'm still getting
the same problem with my ESDI drive.

As the machine boots, going thru all the checks, it gets to the si0 part
this is what i get...

sd3 is not connected, so thats ok...   but why would sd2 be not ready.

do i need to put it on another scsi id???  or is this just a case
that i need to format the drive??

thanx
