Hello, I'm building a new system for a friend and I bought a Pioneer DVD-120s drive for him because it was a newer version of the drive I use (DVD-116) and my friend uses (DVD-106s) with FreeBSD. The problem is that FreeBSD cannot probe the drive for some reason. I've tried twiddling the ATAPI_DMA bit, rescanned the drive, and toyed with the cable, but nothing seems to work. The BIOS can see the drive, in fact I can boot FreeBSD using the El-Torrito boot sector on the drive, but I cannot use the CD as the distribution in the installer. FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE boots all the way up to the point where it lists the ATA devices, then gets in an infinate loop with ATAPI Timeouts. FreeBSD 5-CURRENT does not get in an infinate loop, but returns the following error on boot: ata1-master: timeout waiting for interrupt ata1-master: ATAPI identify failed Using the following hardware: atapci0: <VIA 8233A UDMA133 controller> port 0xd000-0xd00f at device 17.1 on pci0 The same problem occured with this hardware: atapci0: <VIA 8233 ATA100 controller> port 0xe000-0xe00f at device 17.1 on pci0 Windows XP has no trouble detecting or using this drive. I have tried setting the region on the drive and that did not seem to help. Does anybody know what the problem is here? -- \ |_ _|__ __|_ \ __| Jason Andresen jandrese@mitre.org |\/ | | | / _| Network and Distributed Systems Engineer _| _|___| _| _|_\___| Office: 703-883-7755
