I am posting this for a local site who is having problems with the rp driver on 2.9. System: 11/34 with rp03 emulation, tm11 emulation. Description: Generic kernel boots and runs. Customized kernel dies after sizing memory: ka6: 2057 aps: 141660 pc: 2 ps: 0 ovly:3 trap type 1 panic The problem seems to be in the critical code of rpstrategy() [rp.c]. The (void) _spl0(); is bracketed by printf()'s and never gets to the second one. I suggested changing the (void) _spl5(); to s=spl5(); and the _spl0() to splx(s) since that is what the hk driver does. With the former, any device priorities that were set before the disk driver ran are forgotten. Does anyone know of any problems in this area? Is anyone running a similar configuration? Respond to me and I'll pass it along. If you're feeling really generous, call Malle Tagamets at the Univ. of Md. at Balt. (UMAB).
