After trying what Chuck suggested, if you're using 5.3 and it still doesn't work don't sweat it. I've installed 5.3 on the same machine (an IBM Aptiva k6-2 450) but using two different hard drives, both times giving me the same error. In both cases, I was able to install 4.10-STABLE without any problems. I've seen several people complain about this problem on 5.3 machines, with the only solution thus far using a sysctl variable to disable udma for the hard drive. For some reason it seems no one (that would know how to fix it) is acknowledging the problem, which makes finding a solution even more difficult. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Chuck Swiger Sent: November 28, 2004 7:36 PM To: Marta Resende Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: hdd error Marta Resende wrote: > everytime i compile any program, or make world, it gives me that: > > ad0: WARNING - WRITE_DMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=74623 > > anyone knows what's that ?thx I'd try replacing your IDE cable. Possibly something else is wrong, perhaps with your master/slave/CS jumper settings on your drive and other ATA devices, so double-check those too. -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
