Sadly, I won't be able to find out anytime soon. The whole point of this project was to use a machine that otherwise had no use, to see how long it would run.

Thanks for the help. --Mikel On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 9:12 AM, Carlo Dapor <catull@gmail.com> wrote: > Mike, > > > Try doing 'set hw.ata.atapi_dma=0' at the prompt.
