Hi,
Just to be sure: please post the dmesg part refering to ATA probes.
Also please post the result of "sysctl hw.atamodes'; if it has a "dma" in
the list then try a "sysctl -w hw.atamodes=pio,---,---,---" under root and
check if the error appear again.
I seem to remember I had this kind of problems myself too and I believe
this is because of some issues when operating in DMA mode (either hardware
configuration issues, like bad cable, eiher a driver problem). I solved my
problem by forcing the controller into PIO mode ("hw=pio,---,---,---" in
/etc/sysctl.conf).
