Iv been trying to install freebsd 4.5 all night and get a similar problem.
It hangs while probing devices but for a few minutes i can still get to
the second terminal and see the following message:

acd0: READ_TOC command timeout - resetting
ata1: resetting devices .. done
acd0: read data overrun 12/0


Theses repeat about 5 times before it just freezes. Iv used 2 boot CDs and
unpluged everything except my first HD and CD-ROM. (HD1 is on ata0-prim,
CDR on ata1-slave) The other 2 slots (ata0-slav, ata1-prim) are both
similar HDs. Im not sure if that makes a difference though. I think the
problem is with VIA or the IDE controlers and BSD not liking one or the
other.

Iv read all the FAQs on the main site and been through the docs as well.
Iv also searched all over for similar problems and It seems like noone
really knows.


If you have any suggestions, it would be much appreicated.

Thanks in advance,
-Doug
