Is there a way that I can keep the older ATA code with -STABLE? I dug through the archives, but for just about everyone, the problems seemed to originate with 4.0 and 4.1 and went away 4.2+. I don't need the support for 66/100 chipsets, and the error messages weren't the same as folks with the VIA + SoundBlaster, falling back to PIO4 made no difference. In any case, it runs solid on 4.0 and wasn't usable in 4.2-4.4RC3. Can I do this or are there going to be incompatibilities with the rest of the kernel? -Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
