Ok, so the SCSI stuff basically works.

True. Did you try a -current kernel? I'd like to know if it still hangs
there.

Unlikely. I suspect some oddity in the mapping of OF's device path to
NetBSD's device names.

Hmm, the card apparently has its own PCI bridge, I remember some people
having trouble with these.

So - please try a -current kernel, I'll build one for you if you don't
want to go through the trouble of rolling your own. =20
I /think/ the code that maps the OF device name to NetBSD's may choke on
your boot path: /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@3/SUNW,isptwo@4/sd@3,0:a/netbsd
three nested instances of pci aren't /that/ common after all and macppc
had a similar problem a while ago ( it didn't hang though, just didn't
use the right device )=20
If -current still has the problem it should definitely be fixed for 3.0
You may want to file a bug report about it too, just to make sure we
don't forget about it ;)

Hmm, your CPU looks a bit odd too, I thought all UltraSPARC-IIi modules
for U5/U10 boxes with 300MHz or more had 2MB cache.

Does the HME on the card work properly?

have fun
Michael
