Non working dvdrom drive.

[subhro]

Hello People,
I have installed FreeBSD-4.8-stable on my Intel 815 chipset Pentium III box. 
It has a hard drive (Seagate ST-340014A)jumpered as primary master and a 
DVDROM (Asus E616) jumpered as the primary slave. I also have a CDWriter 
(Samsung SW-212B) on the secondary master. When FreeBSD Boots up it throws 
out an error while identifying the DVDROM Drive as ATA Device Identification 
Retries Exceeded. If i change the places of the DVDROM and cdwriter then the 
dvdrom works fine but the same error occurs for the cdwriter which is now 
primary slave. The firmware of the DVDROM is updated to the latest release 
and so in the MotherBoard BIOS (Fujitsu-siemens D1184). All the drives works 
fine in Windows as well as NetBSD and Linux. I would be very grateful to 
anyone who would please guide to get all my drives working under FreeBSD.
Thanks
Subhro Sankha Kar
