Okay, I'm not really an ATA expert nor do I know the code, but what I found= is=20 that it could be a LBA/CHS problem. Which version do you use? Have you tried to slice/lable the card inside the= =20 NSA 1045 (from a temporary FreeBSD holding HD)? If I'm right you dump a preformatted image onto the card, maybe you have=20 addressing problems.... I gave up using images, PXE-booting (or installing a HD on machines which h= ave=20 the possibillity) and installing the base system right on the destination=20 hardware turned out to be much safer and is not really more time consuming.= =2E. Mayby playing with BIOS LBA/CHS settings gives some hint's, I don't expect= =20 that, but I'd try that and if that all fails you may want to contact S=F8re= n,=20 the ATA author. =2DHarry > > > Am Freitag, 25.
