Hi!


I was very happy to see that the NetBSD 1.4 kernel finally sup-
ports the UW host adapter of the CSPPC.

Now I tried to create some NetBSD partitions on a UW-disk, but
I failed. Whenever I select "Custom File System" for a partition
the system crashes when trying to boot. The only thing I could do
was to disable the drive from the CSPPC Early Startup Menu, then
reenable it with "unitcontrol" from WB and delete the partition.
After that it works again.

Selecting another file system like SFS or UNI\01 works, only
"Custom File System" causes a crash.

Has anybody else experienced this problem too, or even better,
found a solution for it? I'm using cybppc.device 44.57.

Thanks in advance.
