Yesterday's 6.0BETA4 would not initialize ad4 and ad6 would freeze up under moderate writes so whatever changed between BETA4 and BETA5 has been a real improvement. Under FreeBSD5.4 both drives always initialize just fine, but even after this new BETA5 I stille have to boot the machine multiple times before both drives initialize, usually just one or the other will. Also dmesg is still showing some sort of error "ata2: FAILURE - oversized DMA transfer attempt 8704 > 7680". Here is from my dmesg after a successful boot: atapci0: port 0xec00-0xec07,0xe800-0xe803,0xe400-0xe407,0xe000-0xe003,0xdc00-0xdc0f mem 0xdffffe00-0xdfffffff irq 5 at device 8.0 on pci0 [snip] ad0: 6149MB at ata0-master UDMA33 acd0: CDRW at ata1-master UDMA33 ad4: 76319MB at ata2-master SATA150 ata2: FAILURE - oversized DMA transfer attempt 8704 > 7680 ad4: setting up DMA failed ad6: 114473MB at ata3-master SATA150 ata3: FAILURE - oversized DMA transfer attempt 8704 > 7680 ad6: setting up DMA failed cd0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 cd0: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 33.000MB/s transfers cd0: cd present [20339 x 2048 byte records] [snip] uname -ar: FreeBSD ringworm.mechee.com 6.0-BETA5 FreeBSD 6.0-BETA5 #2: Sun Sep 18 14:40:15 PDT 2005 root@ringworm.mechee.com:/usr6/obj/usr6/src/sys/RINGWORM6 i386 Drive ad6 still locks up with moderate writes and freezes the entire system under BETA5 -Mike
