>Description:
Upon cold boot, MPARERR is generated.  I believe that it is before
"Waiting XXX seconds for SCSI bus to settle" appears, but the MPARERR
spams the console repeatedly... I might be missing it.

This happens regardless of MB of controller, and on every cold boot, but
only on cold boots.

Quick STFWing via Google told me that I'm not the first:

It appears that 4.0-C was the topic of discussion, and the problem was
fixed circa 2000/02/09... but my 2940 and 2940UW are most unhappy on
4.2-R.

>How-To-Repeat:
Cold boot.
