Hi, I have the same problem as describe here http://arkiv.freebsd.se/?ml=freebsd-proliant&a=2008-03&t=6875944 shortly: acd0: DVDR SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched! acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (1 retry left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (0 retries left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG timed out acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (1 retry left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (0 retries left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG timed out acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (1 retry left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retraying (0 retries left) acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG timed out the answer is here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2008-March/084572.html shortly: The system will reboot properly if you load ipmi module and specify watchdog timeout in 60 seconds. # kldload ipmi # watchdog -t 60; reboot You can create handy alias. alias reboot 'watchdog -t 60; /sbin/reboot' I didn't have any issue with DVD drive when it was running 6.3/7.0. similar problem can be found here too: http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc/2008-06/msg00171.html this one solved by editing sysctl hw.ata.atapi_dma to 0. Now, I am trying to install FreeBSD 7.0 (or 6.3, it does not metter for me). Can you please let me know how can I change hw.ata.atapi_dma or kldload ipmi module when I do not have installed FreeBSD on my machine? how can I change standard install distributive? How is it possible to install FreeBSD with that problem having one sata cdrom? Thanks in advance. -- /BR, Alexander
