I solved these DMA problems on my server by replacing my ASUS 
motherboard's IDE controller with an Adaptec 1200A RAID controller 
(simply used as a different ATA controller).

Now my workstation is getting a similar error.  The machine is a 2 
year-old Compaq Presario 6024.

What's up with 5.3-Beta6?  Does it not work with regular Maxtor drives?

I've been converting all my machines to FreeBSD, but I keep running in 
to these showstoppers.

Any suggestions?

thx!
