Hi everybody! I have the following problem. I moved my system from FreeBSD 4.11 to 5.4-RC3 by reinstalling everything. The 4.11 system had no problem finding my MAXTOR hard disk as ad3 as slave on the secondary IDE behind the CDROM. The new 5.4 system indicates a lot of errors, but finally accepts it and everything just works fine. If I remove the hard drive the CDROM is recognised without problems. My guess is that the system tries to use higher PIO mode on the disk than it is good for or something like that. Can anybody explain how I can tune the kernel to avoid the error messages? (BTW I have a GENERIC kernel.) dmesg messages from the 4.11 and the 5.4-RC3 versions are below. Thanks in advance Zoltan ---------------------------------------- Relevant parts of the dmesg from the 4.11-RELEASE version.
