Hello! I am trying to install 9.0-RELEASE from standard amd64 memstick image. During the install huge amount of "rescan already queued" messages breaks installer interface.
(noperiph:ata1:0:-1:-1): rescan already queued (noperiph:ata1:0:-1:-1): rescan already queued (noperiph:ata1:0:-1:-1): rescan already queued (noperiph:ata1:0:-1:-1): rescan already queued So, I have 2 questions: 1) Are these messages harmless? 2) Messages are a little bit annoying. So, is there any way to suppress them? Some remarks: 1) I am trying to install FreeBSD on HP ProBook 4730s, which seems to be affected by a recent Intel bug: http://ixbtlabs.com/articles3/cpu/intel-6x-chipset-bug-p1.html 2) HDD is ada0 on ata0. 3) The messages are genetared constantly: # dmesg | grep "rescan already queued" | wc -l 98 # uptime ... 14 mins ... 4) I've tried to suppress messages by setting "hint.ata.1.disabled=1", but this had no effect (may be due to my mistake?) 5) Verbose kernel log has the following part: (aprobe0:ata1:0:0:0): SOFT_RESET. ACB: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 (aprobe0:ata1:0:0:0): CAM status: Selection Timeout (aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): SOFT_RESET.
