The flash drive is detected with 3940272 sectors. Is there a way to
control the LBA= parameter? Does it matter if I try?
no.
How can I control the number of retries?
I read that FreeBSD doesn't use the BIOS at least for CHS. Does
FreeBSD use the BIOS for PIO and UDMA modes?
no.
try disabling dma with
set hw.ata.ata_dma=0
bootloader command

Aloha,
Wojciech, could be on the right track. I have recently had to do this on
several different FreeBSd server boxes to stop these errors. Both
current FreeBSD 7 and 8 have done this. Hardware didnt seem to matter.
