The M/B worked =20= flawlessly under 7.0-BETA1 & BETA2. I added the Marvell controller =20 and EVERYTHING on the PCI-X bus flaked out. I'm seeing Ierrs and =20 Oerrs (netstat -i) on the built-in bge interfaces, ZFS checksum errors =20= on disks attached to the Marvel controller, etc. I wasn't sure from reading the thread whether Soren thought the =20 problem went beyond the HT1000 chipset or not. The problem seems to =20 manifest itself only when I use the disks attached to the Marvel =20 controller. I'm applying the patch now to see if it fixes the problem. -Nick --- bofh@terranova.net wrote: From: Travis Mikalson To: freebsd-current@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ServerWorks/Broadcom HT1000 chipset errata saga Date: Sun, 23 Dec 2007 12:40:37 -0500 J.

By the way, anybody with an afflicted HT1000 system who has been unable to install FreeBSD on it, contact me privately off-list and I can provide you a patched 7.0-BETA4 boot CD (disc1 from make release) so you can get it going. -T --=20 TerraNovaNet Internet Services - Key Largo, FL Voice: (305)453-4011 x101 Fax: (305)451-5991 http://www.terranova.net/ ---------------------------------------------- Life's not fair, but the root password helps. _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to = "freebsd-current-unsubscribe@freebsd.org=20 "
