Boxes using this chipset (like the Dell PowerEdge SC1435) cannot boot FreeBSD-7.0 nor the latest 7.1-BETA. I have tested the patch available at http://www.freebsd.org/~jhb/patches/ata_ht1000.patch to replace the GENERIC kernel in the 7.1-BETA ISO and was able to boot/install and successfully use this patched 7.1 on my Dell PowerEdge. (See: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2008-October/045923.html) The box is now running Apache/MySQL succesfully; and I have successfully rebuilt world/kernel (RELENG_7 + ata_ht1000 patch) in this box. It would be a good idea to have this patch included in the next 7.1-BETA or RELEASE CANDIDATE, for widespread testing. Otherwise, we would be accumulating two releases with bad or no support for this chipset! (kern/119851 shows another user just bitten by the same bug) PS: I am sending this PR again (sorry of CCed parties get the same message again) because the original PR never arrived at freebsd.org. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: The following patch worked for me: http://www.freebsd.org/~jhb/patches/ata_ht1000.patch >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
