Hello, First of all I want to thank anyone in advance for any help i receive. I am having problems upgrading from OpenBSD 4.1 to 4.2.
After putting the GENERIC 4.2 kernel in place, i get the following errors for all partitions during boot, followed by a panic: wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4), retrying wd0: transfer error, downgrading to Ultra-DMA mode 4 wd0(pciide1:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 4 wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4), retrying wd0: transfer error, downgrading to Ultra-DMA mode 3 wd0(pciide1:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 3 wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4), retrying wd0: transfer error, downgrading to Ultra-DMA mode 2 wd0(pciide1:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 2 wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4), retrying wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4), retrying wd0a: id not found reading fsbn 128 of 128-143 (wd0 bn 8796093022399; cn 547531467 tn 80 sn 4) I've searched the archives and found this similar problem: http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/openbsd/2008-01/0165.html The response was version mismatch and user error due to upgrading/downgrading etc. I however have followed some very simple steps with no downgrading or other tweaking of any kind and have the same results. In addition I've tried to boot from the 4.2 ramdisk kernel and manually mount the partitions that were previously defined in 4.1 and I get the same error. Its very simple to replicate my issue. 1. Install obsd 4.1 2. boot from the GENERIC 4.2 kernel. 3. system wont boot due to disks not mounting. I can do a clean install of 4.2 by wiping the partition table and starting over and the install works fine. Is there a way to convert the old 4.1 label without losing data? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also want to note that this only seems to happen when using a SATA disk as the other poster mentioned. I can upgrade a system with a PATA disk just fine. dmesg from the ramdisk kernel is below. The last part of the dmesg with the 'id not found reading fsbn' error was after I ran 'mount /dev/wd0a /mnt2'.
