Hello, when I try to install FreeBSD 5.2.1 on my computer with HDD on ata0-master and CD-ROM on ata0-slave I got five interessting messages during the boot-process:
... ad0: 4124MB <SAMSUNG VA34323A> [8938/15/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=8446347 ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=0 ad0: WARNING - READ_DMA interrupt was seen but timeout fired LBA=8446347 ad0: WARNING - READ_DMA interrupt was seen but taskqueue stalled LBA=8446347 then the computer stops and he resists in this state till now... OpenBSD "downgrades" this DMA-thing automaticly and the CD-ROM seems not supporting UDMA and I assume to set at bootphase 3 a device.hint but I don't know which one? With regards Mr. Stevan Tiefert -- deltree /y c:\windows My suggestion to solve all your problems! _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
