Hi there, Problem: FreeBSD 4.x hangs on boot if I have an CRX120E (CD-RW 4/4/24) drive connected in my sistem. What I have: MSI K7T Turbo motherboard with VIA KT133A (VT8363A/VT82C686B) chipset IDE drives: primary master: hdd (ata100) primary slave: none secondary master: Sony CRX120E (pio4) secondary slave: CDROM (ata33) or none It hangs after detecting the hdd. If i disconnect the CRX, the system boot up fine. I mention that the drive works well with other OSes (on the same sistem) (netbsd, linux, etc). What I've tried: - booting several 4.x versions (4.4, 4.3, 4.2, 4.0). All have the same problem. - booting an 3.4 version: this does not hang, but I see that it use the old wd driver. - let the CRX be alone on its controller (without CDROM drive) - no results - compiling an custom kernel. I've done an "minimal" kernel, I even built an debug one. No result. - disabling udma on motherboard. no result. Now, what do you suggest to do next? I really want to use FreeBSD on this sistem ... (and, please, don't tell me that ide sux :) (I'll also appreciate if you cc me in replies) Thanks, Stefan _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
