I want to use FreeBSD at my home pc as my mainstay OS but I'm having problems upgrading to STABLE. My earlier postings to this list haven't received any replies yet so I'm again sending a request for assistance. My home pc config is: Gigabyte 6BXC with 128M ram, 8G hd, a Matrox G200 AGP vid card I have used fbsd 4.0 and 4.1 release versions and both of them would give me the following messages: ata0-master: TIMEOUT: device has disappeared! Either I'm doing a "make build" or "cvsup stable-supfile". I've already swapped the hd between the primary and secondary ide controllers and still get the message. The only thing left is to find a hard disk to try out but hard disks are expensive in this part of the world so I was wondering if my analysis is correct that the hard disk is at fault before I commit and buy a new harddisk. Appreciate any help. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Rino Mardo Network and Systems Administrator Al-Tayer Group of Companies Tel.
