I wish I've seen it before purchasing a 5BG Travan drive (HP Colorado 5GB, it's also an ATAPI tape drive)! If the ADR drive is an ATAPI drive, it would work with the "wst" driver included in FreeBSD (just recompile your kernel with a config file with the folowing lines): options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus options ATAPI_STATIC #Don't do it as an LKM controller wdc1 at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 device wst0 It works with my Colorado drive, but there are some "issues": The End Of File is seen as an I/O Error, the End of Media error is also seen as an I/O error (Which make "dump" trying again the same tape instead of asking for the folowing tape). You should also avoid sending a command (such as rewind, fsf 1, ...) when the drive execute another one: FreeBSD just freeze until the completion of the first command :( I've also some I/O error during some backup (It may be an HP specific problem)... And also some other errors where the driver is "stalled": it seems a "write" command doesn't finish: you can't kill the writing process... And you should not send any command (you would freeze FreeBSD... until ON/OFF switch :< ). Are some interupts "lost" ? That's it! One other point... you should also check if your drive support hardware compression. My Colorado 5GB doesn't... it's only sold with software which compress data. A "gzip -1" command on a Pentium 90 compress incoming data at 380 Kb/s, which make my backup bandwith quite slow compared with the 700 kb/s given by HP (on a P200). A bakup with no compression is faster, but I would need changing my 2.5GB tape. (Perhaps ADR drives handles hardware compression... Anyway, perhaps a single 15GB tape is enough for your disks). A last word... I havn't tryed the ADR tape. I can't garantee you the ADR drive would work, but ATAPI/SCSI tape drives should follow the QIC-157 norm. It's likely the ADR drive will work like my ATAPI tape... and even faster! -- Frederic Loyer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hardware Mon Mar 22 2:17:33 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from gator.adeptscience.co.uk (gator.adeptscience.co.uk [193.116.153.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CC94514BDA for ; Mon, 22 Mar 1999 02:17:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from reese@chem.duke.edu) Received: from toucan.adeptscience.co.uk (toucan.adeptscience.co.uk [193.119.170.10]) by gator.adeptscience.co.uk (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id KAA28059; Mon, 22 Mar 1999 10:16:54 GMT (envelope-from reese@chem.duke.edu) Message-Id: <1.5.4.32.19990322101608.00715a90@chem.duke.edu> X-Sender: reese@chem.duke.edu (Unverified) X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 1.5.4 (32) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Mon, 22 Mar 1999 10:16:08 +0000 To: reese@chem.duke.edu From: Charles Reese Subject: Re: P-II vs K6-2 Cc: freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG, peter.jeremy@auss2.alcatel.com.au Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org In message <199903160902.KAA23875@cicero1.cybercity.dk>, "Rudy Gireyev" writes: >> In message <99Mar16.183042est.40331@border.alcanet.com.au>, Peter Jeremy writes >> : >> >I'm looking at buying a new system to augment my aging 486DX2-50. >> > >> >Would anyone like to comment on either a Tekram P5MVP-B4 with a K6-2 >> >processor, or a Tekram BX-series with a P-II?

No go, at least with 3.1-RELEASE. Major bummer. I just got the Onstream 30GB SCSI drive (my second, actually -- the first one was DOA), and it pukes with 3.1-RELEASE.

I have had FreeBSD 3.1 (minimal install) installed on my PPro 200 clone for 2 weeks and have noticed a hard drive making a random "tink" noise (this is not a usual sound). Also 2 days ago I got an error: wd0s1e:wdstart:time out waiting to give command writing fsbn7776 of 7776-7787 (wd0s1e bn608640; cn75tn60sn60)(status 1error2) My questions are, what is this error? does this error relate to the "tink" noise I hear? Does this mean a hard disk is about to fail or could it be that FreeBSD is not picking up the BIOS info on the hard disk? Here is my hardware: Pentium Pro 200 QDI Motherboard 128 MB RAM 3.2 GB Quantum Fireball H.D. 1.6 GB Western Digitial Caviar H.D. 24x IDE CDROM 10BaseT PCI Ethernet Any info on this problem would be REALLY appreciated!

Ideally, buy a second IDE drive, and plug it into the next available IDE connector slot, reboot, and mount the drive. No futzing with jumpers or pins if possible. The drive will be used for backup, most likely I will do periodic dumps to the drive. What to get and how to do this in the easiest possible way?

If the systems boots okay from a hard reset, but (sometimes) hangs when booted with "shutdown -r", you've hit a known problem. There's been quite a bit of discussion about this on the freebsd-scsi list; search for "Boot-time scsi probe problem" in the list archives. A possible patch has been published.

Tor Egge came up with a work-around that seems to solve the problem most of the time. It isn't a fix. As far as I know, Justin has not heard back from Adaptec yet. Justin said that he is planning on checking in Tor's work-around until he can get a real fix. He said he would try to check it in later on tonight, but that may or may not happen, since he is busy. > i have several machines i can use for testing. so far i've twiddled > with timings and stuff, the code is from last week, but as far as i > can tell (i read "all" the major lists including cvs-all) nothing > has been committed into the tree... Well, here's Tor's patch. I don't think he'll mind if I give it out: http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~ken/tor.adaptec_patch.031799 I upgraded a number of machines this weekend, and I had the same hang problem on a system with an onboard 7890. I fixed it with the above patch. Send some mail to the list once you try the patch and let people know whether it works for you or not.
