Hello,
I'm trying to install 4.2R on a Compaq Presario 7170.
It's an older box with a Pentium overdrive chip, 48MB
RAM, 812MB Conner, 3815MB Western Digital, and Matshita CDROM
on ata0-master (ad0), ata0-slave (ad1), and ata1-master (acd0).
After doing a graphical config, it took at least 5 minutes for
the "devices to settle". I finally got through the config
and began installation. On screen one, I see...
"All filesystem information written successfully"
On the debug screen I see...
"acd0: PREVENT_ALLOW command timeout - resetting"
"ata1: resetting devices .. done"
above message repeated 3 more times
"acd0: TEST_UNIT_READY command timeout - resetting"
"ata1: resetting devices .. done"
above message repeated 3 more times
"acd0: READ_TOC command timeout - resetting"
"ata1: resetting devices .. done"
above message repeated 7 more times
"acd0: READ_CAPACITY command timeout - resetting"
"ata1: resetting devices .. done"
above message repeated 3 more times
"acd0: READ_CD command timeout - resetting"
"ata1: resetting devices .. done"
above message repeated 4 more times
I've been watching it now for the last 15 minutes
and it's repeating the READ_CD message.
Does anyone know what's going on? Bad CDROM?
IDE Controller? Any and all ideas appreciated.
