I also found this problem with a system based on the VIA KT133 chipset: atapci0: port 0xffa0-0xffaf at device 7.1 on pci0 The primary slave (the CD-ROM) was not detected, and despite of the hard disk and the ATA cable being ATA66, the boot messages reported that the channel was working at 33 MHz because of the cable. I moved the CD-ROM to the secondary master, and then everything worked fine; therefore, the cable was not guilty. -- JMA ****** Jose M.
