Hello FreeBSD users, My computer has a VIA 82C686 chipset and to get around the timing problem with my Iomega zip drive I installed a Promise ATA/66 card. Connected as master on this card, the zip drive is functioning well under MS Windows and Linux. I'm able to read and write files and to create an ext2 file system. With FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE and 4.5-STABLE though, I'm still challenged. When I use sysinstall to create a filesystem on the zip it creates a afd0s1e slice, but when I try to mount disks with FAT or UFS file system I get the following message: - Mar 31 05:12:58 /kernel: afd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting - Mar 31 05:12:58 /kernel: ata3: resetting devices .. ata3-master: timeout waiting for command=ef s=11 e=04 - Mar 31 05:12:58 /kernel: done I tried to mount /dev/afd0s4 as type msdos and both /dev/afd0s1e and /dev/afd0e as type ffs. Here is some more output, what am I doing wrong? Output of dmesg: - isab0: <VIA 82C686 PCI-ISA bridge> at device 7.0 on pci0 - atapci0: <VIA 82C686 ATA100 controller> port 0xc000-0xc00f at device 7.1 on pci0 - ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 - ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 - atapci1: <Promise ATA66 controller> port 0xdc00-0xdc3f,0xd800-0xd803,0xd400-0xd407,0xd000- - 0xd003,0xcc00-0xcc07 mem 0xdf000000-0xdf01ffff irq 11 at device 10.0 on pci0 - ata2: at 0xcc00 on atapci1 - ata3: at 0xd400 on atapci1 - ad0: 19092MB <WDC WD200BB-00AUA1> [38792/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 - acd0: DVD-ROM <ATAPI 12X DVDROM> at ata1-master using PIO4 - afd0: 96MB <IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI> [96/64/32] at ata3-master using PIO0 Output of fdisk (fat filesystem): - ******* Working on device /dev/afd0 ******* - parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: - cylinders=96 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) - - parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: - cylinders=96 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) - - Media sector size is 512 - Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 - Information from DOS bootblock is: - The data for partition 1 is: - <UNUSED> - The data for partition 2 is: - <UNUSED> - The data for partition 3 is: - <UNUSED> - The data for partition 4 is: - sysid 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB)) - start 32, size 196576 (95 Meg), flag 80 (active) - beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; - end: cyl 95/ head 63/ sector 32 Output of fdisk (ufs filesystem): - ******* Working on device /dev/afd0 ******* - parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: - cylinders=96 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) - - parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: - cylinders=96 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) - - Media sector size is 512 - Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 - Information from DOS bootblock is: - The data for partition 1 is: - sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) - start 32, size 196576 (95 Meg), flag 80 (active) - beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; - end: cyl 95/ head 63/ sector 32 - The data for partition 2 is: - <UNUSED> - The data for partition 3 is: - <UNUSED> - The data for partition 4 is: - <UNUSED> Output of disklabel on a filesystem created with sysinstall: - # /dev/afd0s1c: - type: ESDI - disk: afd0s1 - label: - flags: - bytes/sector: 512 - sectors/track: 32 - tracks/cylinder: 64 - sectors/cylinder: 2048 - cylinders: 95 - sectors/unit: 196576 - rpm: 3600 - interleave: 1 - trackskew: 0 - cylinderskew: 0 - headswitch: 0 # milliseconds - track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds - drivedata: 0 - - 8 partitions: - # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] - c: 196576 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 95*) - e: 196576 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 95*) Thank you in advance for your advice, Wilbert van Bakel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
