Hi,

"edx: device timeout" messages normally point to a hardware - software
interrupt mismatch. Make sure that your hardware is where your software
expect it, or tell your software where your hardware is. GENERIC FreeBSD
kernels expect ed0 at io addr 0x280, irq 5 and mem 0xd800. If you want
to use ed1 it should be at io addr 0x300, irq 5 and mem 0xd800. If you
would rather change FreeBSD, you can type '-c' at the boot prompt and
set it to what your hardware is.

John
