Hi all,

With NetBSD-1.2 (stock) installed on a Sun 3/160 with a Xylogics 451
controller, I see the following error logged:

Nov 24 20:43:10 mikkabi /netbsd: xyc0: watchdog timeout

... over and over again.  Happens during _any_ disk access, though it's
more frequent with heavy access.

Usually it claims that a soft reset cleared up the problem, but if the
system was in the middle of a write it gives up -- with resultant data
lossage.

What's really nasty is when this happens while it's writing to swap.  The
machine became so unstable that I've been resorting to netbooting it ...
which isn't a good thing from my employer's point of view.

Ideas?
