Hi,

I've sent an e-mail to freebsd-questions, but I havn't had a helpful response.
I thought that I could get a better response from here.


I recently CVSup'd to FreeBSD 4.0 from 3.4, and now my IDE cdrom dosn't work.
I have MAKEDEV'd all the devices, CVSup'd again and made world, i've built
several new kernels, and it still dosn't work. The cdrom won't even work if I
boot from the generic kernel (which i also rebuilt).

all the IDE devices are detected properly at boot time...
----
atapci0: <Intel PIIX4 ATA33 controller> port 0xd800-0xd80f at device 4.1 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
ad0: 6187MB <FUJITSU MPB3064ATU E> [13410/15/63] at ata0-master using UDMA33
ad1: 2014MB <WDC AC22100H> [4092/16/63] at ata0-slave using WDMA2
acd0: CDROM <ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 36X MAXIMUM> at ata1-master using PIO4
----

but when I goto mount a cdrom...
----
neptune# mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom
cd9660: Device not configured
----

I have in my kernel:
----
options         CD9660                  #ISO 9660 Filesystem
# ATA and ATAPI devices
device          ata
device          atadisk                 # ATA disk drives
device          atapicd                 # ATAPI CDROM drives
device          atapifd                 # ATAPI floppy drives
device          atapist                 # ATAPI tape drives
----


The cdrom is a master on the secondary IDE controller.
I have read that there is problems with some secondary IDE controllers, but
this one has worked fine with all previous version of FreeBSD (with the wdc and
acd drivers). I can't put it on the primary controller, as I already have 2 HDDs
there, and they can't be moved as they are both boot drives (one for fbsd and
the other for windoze).

What am I doing wrong? or is it a bug that is yet to be resolved? (If so, is
there anything at all that I can do to use my cdrom in the mean time?)

Thanks in advance,
Shaun
