Hi Florin My guess (but I am also fairly new to FBSD) is that the jumpers on the master drive are set so that it reports a slave being present, when there isn't one. If you have a look at the jumper settings on the master then perhaps you can resolve this. Hopefully someone slightly more informed on the list will be able to halp as well.

Didn't change anything in the ata section, except I took out the tape device and the ATA_STATIC_ID (as a last thing when I didn't know what to do anymore). The problem is at boot time, it waits a while for a slave drive, which never existed. Other than that, it works just fine. The master drive is a really old one, here are the prints of some commands: > > # dmesg | grep ata > atapci0: <Intel ICH2 ATA100 controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 31.1 pci0 > ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 > ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 > ata0-slave: timeout waiting for interrupt > ata0-slave: ATA identify failed > ad0: 2060MB <SAMSUNG WN321620A (2.16 GB)> [4186/16/63] at ata0-master WDMA2 > > # atacontrol list > ATA channel 0: > Master: ad0 <SAMSUNG WN321620A (2.16 GB)/FN101> ATA/ATAPI rev 0 > Slave: no device present > ATA channel 1: > Master: no device present > Slave: no device present > > # atacontrol mode 0 > Master = WDMA2 > Slave = ??? > > I took out from device.hints the references to ata, compiled the kernel without them but the same stuff happens. It's not a big deal, the waiting, but I'd like to know what did I do wrong, cause this isn't happening with the generic or the debug kernel.
