Hi, =20 I'm having problems with an IBM xSeries 226 system. It has a SATA disk i= n it, and when booting with FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE, it does not detect any d= rives. If I boot in safe mode, however it can see the disk just fine as "ad4" an= d I can install the OS on it. I tried turning on/off ACPI but that didn't help either. =20 Why does it work okay in safe mode but not normal mode? =20 Verbose booting in normal mode says this about the ATA controllers, so I'= m assuming it is actually seeing the CDROM and the disk: ata0: reset tp2 stat0=3D00 stat1=3D00 devices=3D0x4<ATAPI_MASTER> ata1: reset tp2 stat0=3D01 stat1=3D01 devices=3D0x0 ata2: reset tp2 stat0=3D50 stat1=3D00 devices=3D0x1<ATAPI_MASTER> ata3: reset tp2 stat0=3Dff stat1=3D00 devices=3D0x0 ata0 and ata2 are reinitted a couple more times, then it can't find any f= ilesystems to mount. =20 --- Andrew =20
