>Environment:
I cant' say (I'm not on my machine); something like: "FreeBSD lofthouse.my.domain 3.2-STABLE Sun 15 Aug 21:12:15 EDT root@lofthouse.my.domain:/usr/src/sys/compile/LOFTHOUSE i386"
P200 MMX with Intel 430TX chipset (includes PIIX4 Bus-Master IDE controller), Award BIOS 4.51 PGM, PnP BIOS 1.0A, AOpen AP5TC RC1.10 motherboard.
>Description:
3.2-RELEASE (and 3.0-STABLE, for that matter), do not detect the primary IDE controller (wdc0). When the BIOS settings are changed to "hard drive auto-detect" and then saved, the controller is detected that time. This work-around only works one time. If the machine is rebooted, I need to enter BIOS setup and save settings, then the controller is detected again.
NOTE: problem report KERN/11513 MAY be a related problem. In that problem report, the dmesg output showed that the primary IDE controller was not detected ("wdc0 not found at 0x1f0"). The submitter also uses the Intel 430TX chipset (or at least one that uses the same PIIX4 controller):
"chip0: <Intel 82443BX host to PCI bridge> rev 0x03 on pci0.0.0
chip1: <Intel 82443BX host to AGP bridge> rev 0x03 on pci0.1.0
chip2: <PCI to PCI bridge (vendor=1011 device=0024)> rev 0x03 on pci0.2.0
chip3: <Intel 82371AB PCI to ISA bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.7.0
ide_pci0: <Intel PIIX4 Bus-master IDE controller> rev 0x01 on pci0.7.1
chip4: <Intel 82371AB Power management controller> rev 0x02 on pci0.7.3"
>How-To-Repeat:
Install 3.2-RELEASE (or -STABLE) on the machine. Attempt to boot without re-setting BIOS settings each time.
