Log:
MFR5 changing the hw.ata.atapi_dma default setting so ATAPI drives
run in PIO mode:

> revision 1.222.2.11
> date: 2005/04/04 16:42:35; author: kensmith; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1
> Change the default for hw.ata.atapi_dma so that DMA is off. We are
> seeing a lot of install problems that get fixed by turning DMA
> off. The sparc64 mailing list sees the most reports of this but it
> does come up on others. Changing the default should give us a more
> robust install, at the expense of people who need DMA for burning
> CDs needing to turn it on (maybe).
>
> The same change will be made in HEAD shortly by the ata maintainer.
