I can't tell you why it starts out in PIO mode... we have a server at work running Debian Lunix that does the same thing. running hdparm(plus some flags) to put it into UDMA mode fixes it. Its a P3 on a Abit motherboard. You may need to just use 'atacontrol' to set it into UDMA mode after booting (or during a boot script). --Shaun Lokhorst wrote: > Hello, > > Does anyone know the solution to the following puzzle: > > Why do I get > > ad0: 76319MB [155061/16/63] at ata0-master PIO4 > > while Windows XP runs the same hard disk in UDMA5 mode (i.e., much faster)? > > I use FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE from about a week ago. > > Gert-Jan Lokhorst > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
