hi, seems, ran into the same problem mentioned at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freebsd-questions&m=107029826206576&w=2 configuration: Board: MSI K7N2-Delta nForce2 FSB400 256MB DDR-Ram AMD 1000 FreeBSD hydra.darkness.at 4.9-STABLE FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE #2: Thu Dec 18 17:35:52 CET 2003 root@hydra.darkness.at:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HYDRA i386 atapci0: <nVIDIA nForce2 ATA133 controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 9.0 on pci0 ad0: 38166MB <WDC WD400JB-00ENA0> [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 ad2: 114440MB <WDC WD1200JB-75CRA0> [232514/16/63] at ata1-master UDMA100 ad3: 114440MB <WDC WD1200JB-75CRA0> [232514/16/63] at ata1-slave UDMA100 since the last make-world the system hangs during boot with the error-msg: ad3: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting ata1: resetting devices Notice: This only occurs with the newly built kernel with sources from 3rd of March. The last kernel was built at 18th of Dec. No problems during boot-up. I tried to switch off the disks in the BIOS, but that didn't help. The discovery messages of the harddisks changed from ad0: 38166MB <WDC WD400JB-00ENA0> [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 ^^^^^^^ to: ad0: 38166MB <WDC WD400JB-00ENA0> [77545/16/63] at ata0-master BIOSDMA ^^^^^^^ switching off the DMA-mode in the BIOS also didn't solve the problem. I know about the troubles regarding nVidia not publishing the specs for their chipset. Sound and network isn't very critical als i use an Intel-based NIC, but the ATA-problems are confusing me. Now I'm runnin' a kernel from 18th Dec and a userland from 3rd March... I played with atacontrol a little bit as a "last hope" but nothing. Maybe someone can explain this, or do I really have to buy an additional ATA-controller and connect the two 120GB-drives in a Master/Master-configuration? Or did I forgot something to take care about. A diff between my tweaked kernel and GENERIC available through mail, although the changes don't affect the ata-subsystem, but the networking section. so long, greets clemens
