It seems that the problem is with the ATA driver. It could be that either the kauai driver(which seemed to work before, but maybe I did not test it well enough), or something changed in the machine independent ATA stuff.. A quick workaround, until the problem is fixed, is to disable ATA from the kernel (the hard drive will not work, though). You can find such a kernel at: http://www.segfaulted.com/stuff/freebsd-ppc/kernel.noata Later, Suleiman Souhlal
