I recently posted a problem concerning my Sun Sparcstation SLC. Turns out the problem is a SCSI bus problem. Sun is working on a fix for it. There error I was getting was: esp0: 0.0 data transfer failure Stat=0x10<XZERO>, Intr=0x10<BUS> Last state='UNKNOWN', Last cmd='dma tran_info' DMA addr=0xff105000, last=0xff103000;Dma CSR=0x80000000 Mapped Dma Space: Base = 0xff103000 Count = 0x2000 Transfer History: Base = 0xff103000 Count = 0x2000 sd3: SCSI transport failed: reason 'reset': retrying command Turns out, it depends on how many things you have on the bus, and it happens both with Sun equipment and third party hardware. Thought I would post this for information purposes. Steve Berger Workstation Support Analyst Internet: sberger@nmsu.edu Bitnet: sberger@nmsu.bitnet
