Ok, I just put together a new Athlon system, and am having a hell of a
time trying to get the hard disks to work right.
First, some system details:
Motherboard: FIC SD-11 board rev. 1.8, with the latest BIOS.
(AMD-751 north bridge, VIA 82C686 south bridge)
CPU: AMD Athlon 650MHz.
Memory: 128MB SDRAM DIMM
Hard Disk: Western Digital Caviar WD102AA 10.2 GB Ultra66
(single drive only, no slave devices or CD-ROM's etc.)
Other Cards: Matrox G100 AGP video card, Realtek RTL8139 10/100 PCI
Ethernet, Creative Labs SoundBlaster Ensoniq AudioPCI
OS: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE (cvs updated as of this afternoon)
Now, the problem:
The system boots normally, but after some amount of disk access has
happened (this usually happens when the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* scripts
run) the system switches into PIO mode due to errors.
ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 27984 retrying
ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 27984 retrying

ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 27984ata0-master: WARNING: WAIT_READY
active=ATA_ACTIVE_ATA
falling back to PIO mode
The system works fine after it switches to PIO mode, and there appear to
be no errors in the filesystem (i've tried running fsck a number of
times). If I leave the system running in PIO mode, it runs with no
trouble at all, even running under heavy loads (several simultaneous 'make
world's).
I've tried several different Ultra66 cables, even a cable that has been in
a system that has been running 24/7 perfectly for several months. No
dice.
Obviously this is not the ideal solution. I'd like to get the most out of
my hardware, and having a fast Ultra66 disk running in PIO mode is rather
irksome.
Anyone else out there have a similar configuration as I do, and can shed
some light on this? Thanks in advance for any assistance you are able to
offer. Thanks!
