Hi, I've read about some ATA DMA timeout problems recently here. I just want to tell you, I've got same problems recently. I had to install the kernel.old back to get rid of severe problems.
Affected kernel version: FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Tue May 31 00:19:34 CEST 2005 Last known working version: FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Mon May 9 00:50:46 CEST 2005 Problems with yesterdays kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=200649278 ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=225457534 The system was slowed down. I noticed it while starting some desktop applications. Then I ran cvsup to update my ports tree. This led to a slowdown, which looked like the system was frozen. It was still moving (a bit), but I lost my patience and pressed the reset switch.
