> I just ran freebsd-update to get up to 9.0-RC2 and discovered that ataraid does not work. I realize I'm an edge case and my scenario is not ideal (I use an ITE controller and performance is actually impressively slow), but I cannot boot 9.0 from my stripe, even after manually loading ataraid from the loader prompt (after running an unload command). I mention it mostly because other people using the fakeraid setup by their motherboards for whatever reason (perhaps to share a partition table with window > > atapci0 at pci0:2:11:0: class=0x010400 card=0x00000000 chip=0x82121283 rev=0x13 hdr=0x00 > vendor = 'Integrated Technology Express (ITE) Inc' > device = 'ATA 133 IDE RAID Controller (IT8212F)' > class = mass storage > subclass = RAID > rl0 at pci0:2:13:0: class=0x020000 card=0x80ea104d chip=0x813910ec rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 > > At first I figured because it may be loading AHCI (as per the device naming schemes ada0 and ada1). I haven't looked too much into it (these devices are actually PATA not SATA, so AHCI doesn't even exist for these), but maybe there's an ATA/AHCI driver that's built into the default kernelthat is interfering with ataraid.ko? Maybe this interferes with my stupidly slow and unpopular configuration. > > Thanks for any help, I'll also have a gander at the new DEFAULTS for the generic kernel in the 9.0 source tree. ataraid(4) has been deprecated, since it does not work with the new default kernel option ATA_CAM, and some other devices. graid(8) is intended to replace it: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2011-March/023299.html http://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/base?view=revision&revision=219974 >
