Hello, About 2 weeks ago I upgraded my linux
box to a freebsd machine with a abit bp6 mobo, 2 celleron 533mhz cpus, 256m ram, and a 60gig maxtor hd. I keep
getting the error READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting. below is more details and at the bottom is my dmesg.I am EXTREAMLY frustrated about to go nuts trying to pinpoint the
problem. To sum it up – PROBLEM: operating system getting read timeouts from the
drive and resetting it. (the actually error in /var/messages
is ad6: READ command timeout
tag=0 serv=0 – resetting) When this happens it haults the machine and
continues until its happy with the reset of the drive. It is very random when it happens..
sometimes goes days or hours or seconds. MY TROUBLESHOOTING: Have moved the drive from initial ata33
controller to ata66 udma controller and using a brand new high density cable. I have re-compiled
the kernel manytimes, I have disconnected all other drives including
floppy and recompiled kernel. Disabled ata from kernel and
recompiled.. all getting same resulting random hardrive device timing out.
WHAT I THINK IT COULD BE: Bad Hard Drive – The hard drive is brand new and is
not hot to the touch at all when
it panics or crashes but it does make a lot of grinding noises when
this is occouring I was told from the person at the server. Some Weird unstable ata code with FreeBSD. - http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=READ+command+timeout+tag%3D0+serv%3D0+-+resetting&btnG=Google+Search will show you
TONS of other people using freeebsd who have had the same problem or
close to it but no answers except to run in PIO mode but even in
that I get the same error. Bad Power Supply: When the drive causes a kernel
panic… upon reboot the bios shows
no hardrive. You have to switch power leads from the supply to get it
to come back, even if it’s the same one you used before. I know bad
power supplies can make some fruity shit happen and a bitch to trouble
shoot. Just for notes... the hardrive is
a brand new Maxtor 60 gig drive. The case is brand
new with a 350w power supply. The motherboard/ram/cpus came out of a
working linux server. Any Sugestions would be VERY MUCH
appreciated! my dmesg is as follows: Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project. Copyright (c) 1979, 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991,
