Then I enabled all mass storage controllers on the board ( although no SATA drives present ), then two more ids showed up: chip=0x016a10de (jmicron SATA300) chip=0x05711106 <- thats it !! Then I went iinto /usr/src/sys/dev/ata/ata-pci.h and changed the line from #define ATA_VIA8237A 0x05911106 to #define ATA_VIA8237A 0x05711106 recompiled, install and BANG! <snip> nvidia0: <GeForce 7100 GS> mem 0xdc000000-0xdcffffff,0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xdd000000-0xddffffff irq 24 at device 0.0 on pci2 nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED] pcib3: <ACPI PCI-PCI bridge> irq 31 at device 3.0 on pci0 pci3: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib3 atapci0: <JMicron JMB363 SATA300 controller> port 0xcc00-0xcc07,0xc800-0xc803,0xc400-0xc407,0xc000-0xc003,0xbc00-0xbc0f mem 0xdfefe000-0xdfefffff irq 28 at device 0.0 on pci3 atapci0: AHCI Version 01.00 controller with 2 ports detected ata2: <ATA channel 0> on atapci0 ata3: <ATA channel 1> on atapci0 ata4: <ATA channel 2> on atapci0 atapci1: <VIA 8237A SATA150 controller> port 0xfc00-0xfc07,0xf800-0xf803,0xf400-0xf407,0xf000-0xf003,0xec00-0xec0f,0xe800-0xe8ff irq 21 at device 15.0 on pci0 ata5: <ATA channel 0> on atapci1 ata6: <ATA channel 1> on atapci1 atapci2: <VIA 8237A UDMA133 controller> port 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0xe400-0xe40f at device 15.1 on pci0 ata0: <ATA channel 0> on atapci2 ata1: <ATA channel 1> on atapci2 <snip> ad0: 114498MB <SAMSUNG SP1203N TL100-23> at ata0-master UDMA100 ad1: 117246MB <Maxtor 6Y120L0 YAR41VW0> at ata0-slave UDMA133 ad2: 76351MB <SAMSUNG SP0802N TK100-23> at ata1-master UDMA133 acd0: DVDR <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4160B/A304> at ata1-slave UDMA66 <snip> Normal life returned :-D I dont know if this fix applies to ALL mobos that use VIA chipset (VT8237A) but it shure did to my ASUS mobo Thanks Wojciech Puchar and Sten Daniel Soersdal for your kind attention. -- ********************************************************** //| //| Mario Lobo // |// | http://www.ipad.com.br // // ||||||| FreeBSD since 2.2.8 - 100% Rwindows-free **********************************************************
