I believe I found the solution to my problem: a bad power cable from the power supply to the drive. I've switched to another (had to sacrifice my cdrom :\), and I haven't had an error since. -Brent ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 10 Jul 1999 13:06:35 -0700 (PDT) From: Brent <brent@kearneys.ca> To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: large IDE hdd probs I recently installed a Quantum CR 13GB IDE drive on my FreeBSD 3.2-Rel. box. I have since been having some weird problems. Here are the symtoms: - It makes the sound of a hard drive "waking up" from auto-power off, although the APM features are all disabled in my CMOS -- it makes this sound occassionally after a reboot, then progressively more regularly until it is in nearly constant repetition, before FreeBSD hangs up. It isn't necessarily going to "sleep", I'm just discribing the sound it makes. - These are the error messages I'm getting: Jul 10 08:32:39 ThePalace /kernel: wd2: interrupt timeout (status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 0) Jul 10 08:32:39 ThePalace /kernel: wd2: wdtimeout() DMA status 4 Jul 10 08:32:55 ThePalace /kernel: wd2: interrupt timeout (status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_d am>) ... repeated several times, and then: Jul 10 08:33:39 ThePalace /kernel: wd2: wdunwedge failed (status 90<busy,seekdone> error 90<badblk, no_id>) Jul 10 08:39:32 ThePalace /kernel: wd2s3c: wdstart: timeout waiting to give command reading fsbn 10 690080 of 10690080-10690319 (wd2s3 bn 10690080; cn 10605 tn 3 sn 51) (status 90<busy,seekdone> erro r 90<badblk,no_id>) Jul 10 08:40:14 ThePalace /kernel: wd2: Last time I say: interrupt timeout.

As I said, power management is disabled in the BIOS, not sure what else I can do.
