>Number: 17033 >Category: kern >Synopsis: Samsung SN-124 ATAPI CD-ROM not supported >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sun Feb 27 20:50:00 PST 2000 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: David Crooke >Release: 3.3 (Power Pak boxed set, Oct 1999 date) >Organization: >Environment: Didn't get that far :-) Hardware: Dell Optiplex GX1 500S+, mini-desktop Pentium-III 500MHz 128MB SDRAM ATI Rage 4MB video (I think, not relevant) Integrated 3Com 3C905 Maxtor 9.7Gb EIDE/ATA HDD (primary controller, master) Samsung SN-124 ATAPI CD-ROM (2nd controller, master) >Description: This CD-ROM drive, which appears to be ATAPI compliant, is not detected under FreeBSD. The controller (wdc1) is detected correctly during the kernel startup, at the corrrect, conventional address/IRQ The install fails when CD-ROM based media is selected, citing that there are no CD-ROM devices. An ftp install also failed on the same system (see freebsd-questions@freebsd.org) Notes: The drive works under Win98SE and Linux 2.2, both of which address it as an ATAPI device. Using the same boot procedure with the same FreeBSD media on a Dell GXMT with a Samsung SN-140 full size CD-ROM drive, the CD-ROM drive is successfully detected. The problem appears to be similar, but not identical, to kern/13944 and kern/14028 Note that in both of those cases, the CD would not boot, which isn't the case here >How-To-Repeat: On a machine with this drive.... 1. Do an El Torrito boot from CD #1 of the Oct 99 FreeBSD 3.3 kit 2. Follow the Novice install procedure as per p. 59 of the manual 3. Select a CD-ROM based installation >Fix: No known fix, but a suggestion for the driver maintainer - see what is different between the way the Linux and FreeBSD drivers work, and that may yield insight to the problem. I know zero about ATAPI so this may be felquecarb. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
