Hi,

I'm happily using two R300 for a few months now but currently facing a 
little issue.

I did upgrade one of the boxes today and the box was unable to boot.

It seems to be related to atapiscsi

It hangs just after scsibus1 at atapiscsi0: 2 targets

After disabling atapiscsi (boot -c, ....) the system boots normaly.

dmesg of machine with disabled atapiscsi running yesterday's current: 
http://pastebin.com/f62ac81a6

dmesg of machine with enabled atapiscsi running last month's current: 
http://pastebin.com/f23c707f5

Thanks

I posted something earlier today about it as well...

The devs know about this.

Apparently some SCSI changes in the kernel broke this.

You could try again with the patch posted just few minutes ago by dlg@, 
or wait for the next snapshot to be ready.

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/dev/atapiscsi/atapiscsi.c?rev=1.85

May fix your problem.

Best,

Daniel

Thanks
