please excuse the lack of information and thank you for the support i have limited hardware knowledge, but i think that my cdrom is atapi compatible and is the primary slave (device /dev/hdb in linux) the hard-drive is the primary master (device /dev/hda for linux) here are some lines from dmesg: ata0-slave: identify retries exceeded ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable ad0: 8223MB <ST38410A> [16708/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s2a i'm trying also to disable dma for the hard-drive sysctl hw.atamodes says "dma,---,---,---," i don't know what value to assign to disable dma regards, anton On Monday 11 June 2001 09:38 am, you wrote: > anton chirita schrieb: > > hello > > i have a 40x atapi cdrom > > i burned a 4.3-install.iso and booted from it > > when i choosed cdrom as instalation media i got the error "no cdrom > > device" after that i installed from a dos drive > > i recompiled the kernel with a "device atapicd" line in the conf file but > > i still can't make the device and mount the cdrom drive > > this is the first time i try freebsd > > above that my hard-drive led stands on all the time > > > > how can i solve this problems? > > Since you do not include any information, this is only > speculation:either you got a very old CD-ROM drive, which is not > ATAPI-compatible, or your drive is configured as slave and connected to > an ATA port without a master drive. > > HTH > -Christoph Sold To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
