Subject:   5.3/AMD64 fails to detect ARAID-99 PATA unit when booting Tyan S2882 from a SATA drive
Message-ID:  <1c9d01c4ce51$c0653eb0$0f02020a@cesium>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

Yesterday I received hardware to complete a Tyan S2882 based system.  In =
just a few hours I had FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE / AMD64 running with all =
memory and processors accounted for. =20

I have two hotswap IDE RAID devices installed.  I have an old ARAID-99 =
from the previous 4.x system where it worked fine.  I have a new =
SOHORAID based on the same electronics, but with a SATA interface.   =
Last night I installed FreeBSD 5.3 on the new SATA unit because the =
drives were new and empty.  Later I intend the ARAID-99 to become the =
system volume and the SOHORAID to function as the data volume. =20

Because the Tyan BIOS is weak concerning boot devices I had to go into a =
screen and make the SATA controller the #1 IDE device and the PATA =
controller the #2 drive.  Then I was able to boot off the SATA image =
with the PATA unit installed. =20

The BIOS screen detects the ARAID as the IDE primary master prior to the =
SATA boot cycle.  FreeBSD does not.  There is no /dev/ad0 as I expected. =
 I've booted with blank drives in the ARAID and with older FreeBSD 4.x =
drives installed. =20

fdisk / diskinfo / disklabel won't show me ad0.  They all complain that =
the device does not exist.  I tried to fake it out with makenod but then =
I got "device not configured".  I'm not too strong on devfs yet and =
there is presently no man page for devfs.conf =20

Aside from this issue, so far my experiment with 5.3 / AMD64 was a =
complete success. =20

Is there some reason under 5.3 that SATA and PATA drives don't coexist =
well?  I'm uncertain what to try next. =20
