Hi, I have an old Pentium 133 system using an SiS chipset (PCI bridge 85c501)= and a PhoenixBIOS from cerca 1995. I have encountered the following error whi= le trying to boot either 4.9-RELEASE or 5.2-RELEASE: ata2: at 0x1f0 on atapci0 ata2: unable to allocate interrupt I am using the onboard IDE built into the chipset. Other OS's are able to successfully use the device and detect the single hard drive on it. Since= the drive only supports up to PIO mode 3, I am setting hw.ata.ata_dma=3D0 in = the loader. Setting hw.ata.wc=3D0 makes no difference. The system is bare-bones: only a PCI VGA card (Trio64V+ 4 MB) is installe= d, otherwise the only other peripherals are the ps/2 keyboard and the built-= in COM1, COM2 and parallel port. The drive is an old WD caviar 1.08 gb. Any ideas? This one's a strange one. This little system would make a nice router/server once I get a couple NICs installed... but first I need to s= ee the drive! Thanks Corey
