My current storage configuration is 3 SCSI drives on an Adaptec controller 2 floppy drives (3+1/2 and 5+1/4 -- yes!) on the controller on the mobo (a Gigabyte GA-SINXP1394) 1 Sony CD-ROM on the ATA 0 on the mobo, master 1 Artec CD-RW on the ATA 1 on the mobo, master This configuration works fine. I tried to add the drive, an IBM (now Hitachi) 120G Deskstar, as a slave on the ATA 0 adaptor. The BIOS recognizes is, but during bootstrap I get a message saying that ATA 0 has timed out on some kind of tagged operation, followed by a message indicating a reset and three dots, and no newline. The bootstrap stops right here. I've tried making the new drive the master, with and without the CD-ROM, running that cable off the other IDE interface, and replacing the cable, all with no change. I've even checked the voltages on the board side of the power connector, and felt the drive as it powers up (vibration suggests both rotation and a few seeks). I've got an Antec 420W power supply, so there should be enough juice. A drive problem seems unlikely; this was a new disk sealed in silver mylar and I expect these drives to be rock-solid. (Should I doubt this?) I'll be grateful for any help you can offer. I'm not a subscriber to the hardware list (but I did search it for likely articles), so please reply on freebsd-questions, or reply to me at materribile@yahoo.com .

The model is P4P800 and P4P800-VM and all the drives are brand new Seagate IDE drives. I have removed the CD-ROM drive and the box boots up fine with Primary and Secondary master but as soon as I add a 3rd drive the boot process hangs on ata0 (or ata1) "Resetting devices....". Changing the drive to Cable-Select or putting the slave at the end of the cable doesn't fix the problem either.

My friend had similar problem on his M/B with Intel 865 chipset, which is P4P800 uses. Switching the CDROM and IDE drives around may solve the problem. Since I have no one, I cannot confirm. Try to update the BIOS with very caution because only vertain version may work properly. Here is another example on latest Intel 875 chipset-based M/B. It has very headache booting problem with adding devices. Intel released a number of BIOS to fix related problem, but ??? BIOS versions 05, 06, 08, 10 and 11 are hanging on various things during boot. 07 and 09 kindly work in general cases, but must have some other issues so making Intel keep to update the BIOS. BIOS version 12 is out, but it still hangs during boot, and we do not know why because two identical machines, one can boot, where the other cannot. Common hanging issues: CDROM may need to be the master instead of slave additional I/O card, such as certain video adapters, IDE or SCSI controllers, additional external disk drives may cause system hang. -Jin From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Sep 7 21:26:06 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3469616A4BF; Sun, 7 Sep 2003 21:26:06 -0700 (PDT) Received: from cimlogic.com.au (cimlog.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.51.31]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4F8FC43FEA; Sun, 7 Sep 2003 21:26:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jb@cimlogic.com.au) Received: from freebsd1.cimlogic.com.au (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by cimlogic.com.au (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id h884SKbZ050707; Mon, 8 Sep 2003 14:28:21 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from jb@cimlogic.com.au) Received: (from jb@localhost) by freebsd1.cimlogic.com.au (8.12.9/8.12.9/Submit) id h884SKbc050706; Mon, 8 Sep 2003 14:28:20 +1000 (EST) Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2003 14:28:20 +1000 From: John Birrell To: Jonas Message-ID: <20030908042820.GA49415@freebsd1.cimlogic.com.au> References: <20030908033533.GB47926@freebsd1.cimlogic.com.au> <003301c375bc$6465a3f0$0800a8c0@master> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <003301c375bc$6465a3f0$0800a8c0@master> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.1i cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org cc: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Re: IBM 120 G IDE -- problems X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 08 Sep 2003 04:26:06 -0000 On Sun, Sep 07, 2003 at 08:50:48PM -0700, Jonas wrote: > > OH MAN......

Which tape drives, in your >experience, play nicely with FreeBSD, and what software would you recommend >to go with it? On the software side, dump(8) is defintely the best way to go. Nothing else can match it for handling wierd cases. There are two downsides: 1) You can confuse it by turning a file into a directory (or is it vice versa) whilst the dump is running. 2) The lack of internal filesystem buffering can hurt throughput. Matt Dillon committed some changes that help but it's still below filesystem throughput. For network awareness, amanda has a good reputation though I haven't used it personally. As for a tape drive, last time I checked (admittedly a year ago), SuperDLT seemed to be the most cost-effective solution in the 100GB region. Compaq were also selling a (relatively) cheap 26 slot library if you needed more capacity. One problem with raw tape drives is keeping them streaming - once they switch to start/stop mode, both the performance and reliability drop significantly. This is a particular problem with dump. You might find it useful to have some disk space for staging (dump to disk and then dd the disk to tape). You'll also need Gigabit Ethernet to avoid saturating the network to the tape drive.

Because some chip set / drive combinations don't work in DMA mode (don't know why). You can list the modes your drives are currently using with the following command (as root): atacontrol mode 0 (1st channel) atacontrol mode 1 (2nd -"- ) For performance reasons you can try whether disabling DMA mode for your ATAPI devices is enough, i.e. your /boot/loader.conf should look like this: hw.ata.atapi_dma=3D"0" Regards, Simon --h31gzZEtNLTqOjlF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/XG6+Ckn+/eutqCoRAplCAJ9ggob9nk6WRXqG5m2HmZZEIc/e8ACg3POQ hRzb4Jj8BnxjTNJFW/7TZxQ= =EK2r -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --h31gzZEtNLTqOjlF-- From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 9 02:20:05 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6A9BB16A4BF for ; Tue, 9 Sep 2003 02:20:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from web21102.mail.yahoo.com (web21102.mail.yahoo.com [216.136.227.104]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A27CA43FF7 for ; Tue, 9 Sep 2003 02:20:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from materribile@yahoo.com) Message-ID: <20030909092004.82044.qmail@web21102.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [24.228.74.10] by web21102.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Tue, 09 Sep 2003 02:20:04 PDT Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2003 02:20:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Mark Terribile To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii cc: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Re: IBM 120 G IDE -- problems X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 09 Sep 2003 09:20:05 -0000 My thanks to all the people who replied to my problem with the 120 GB drive. The fix -- or rather, workaround -- is to disable DMA on IDE by setting hw.ata.ata_dma=0 in /boot/loader.conf . This means that any I/O on that disk sucks the processor right up into the drive. This is OK, but barely, because I intend to use this drive infrequently but for large amounts of data. I suspect that the problem is in the support for the chipset. The manual for the board isn't very clear about the base IDE chipset; it lists SiS 963 MuTIOL Media I/O IT8705F I/O Control Sil3112A SATA IT8212F RAID The third and fourth IDE channels are controlled via the RAID system; even when it is configured to make the drives directly visible, FreeBSD can't see them. The board is a GigaByte GA-SINXP1394 (P4 Titan Series). Once again, it's running `well enough'; I have now to put the partitions on it; thanks to all who wrote.

My advice don't use a Realtec based NIC, it resolves in a lot of collisions and there are some auto negotiating problems with this dual speed card. (Drops down to 10Mbit and sometimes you have to reconnect the cable to let it work after a reboot) This is a Windows Box orientated chipset, FreeBSD simply over load this chipset.

There is some discussion of _possibly_ backporting support for one of the "really easy" drivers either before, or right after 4.9, but I wouldn't count on it if you need to meet a deadline.

As Soeren Schmidt (ATA developer) mentioned elsewhere, 4.8R supports Highpoint 1520 and 1540 SATA cards, because they use the well known ATA chipset Highpoint 374 which has FreeBSD builtin support since 4.6R (?)

There is also a Fixed Disk "Drive Parameter Table" available through the traditional BIOS. The table format allocates 16 bits for the number of cylinders, 8 bits for the number of heads, and 8 bits for the number of sectors per track. Since BIOS sector numbers begin at one (not zero), the BIOS addressing limitations are usually given as 1024 cylinders, 255 heads, and 63 sectors per track. (Note: 1024*255*63 sectors is just under 8GB.) The ATA/IDE specifications limit you to 65535 cylinders, 16 heads, and 255 sectors per track (see http://www.t13.org). If you accept both sets of limitations at once, you get a maximum of 1024 cylinders, 16 heads and 63 sectors, resulting in the infamous "528" MB hard disk size limitation. In an effort to work around this unacceptable limitation, your BIOS may pretend that your disk drive has some other geometry, typically using 255 heads and 63 sectors per track though other fake geometries are sometimes used. When a program uses the traditional BIOS system call to do disk I/O (machine instruction "int 13" with a small function code < 0x16 in the AH register), it must use the same disk geometry that is used by the BIOS for interpreting disk addresses. Otherwise the BIOS might translate the specified physical disk address into the wrong actual disk address. (Note: there are also "Enhanced Disk Drive Services" (EDD) using AH register function codes >=0x40 which have bigger limitations and might support Logical Block Addresses (LBA) instead of physical disk addresses. EDD is also described at http://www.t13.org. I don't know which BIOS/bootstrap programs support/use EDD. Modern BIOS presumably provides EDD services. It doesn't do you any good if your BIOS supports EDD but your bootstrap program doesn't use it. The FreeBSD minimal bootstrap that just boots the active partition, /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/mbr/mbr.s, appears to use EDD services when available. The "booteasy" program that allows you to specify a desired partition via a function key, which may be the program .../tools/srcs/bteasy/BOOT.ASM in your FreeBSD distribution, does not seem to use EDD services. (I am not certain that this is the bootstrap installed by /stand/sysinstall.) The GRUB bootstrap program (in /usr/ports/sysutils/grub) appears to use both EDD services and LBA when available.) The only way to discover the geometry expected by the BIOS is to ask the BIOS. This is no problem for bootstrap programs and some Microsoft "operating systems" that use the BIOS disk services for all disk I/O, but the BIOS services cannot be used by a "real" operating system after it takes over the interrupt and virtual memory management hardware and possibly trashes the data structures built by the BIOS during POST (Power On Self Test). A BIOS service routine is likely to do things unacceptable to a "real" OS, such as screwing with system hardware configuration registers or going into indefinite spin loops waiting for device register bits to change. The FreeBSD /stand/sysinstall and fdisk programs need to use the BIOS disk geometry when constructing MBR partition tables. It would be nice if the kernel could get this information from the BIOS early in the bootstrap process and stash it somewhere for further reference, but this seems not to be a FreeBSD kernel feature. The fdisk and /stand/sysinstall programs apparently try to guess the BIOS disk geometry and then ask the user for the "correct" geometry. It would only be fair if the man pages for those programs told you *how* to determine the correct geometry. Some BIOS self-configuration programs (what you boot when holding down the DEL key) may tell you about some ATA/IDE drives, but I am not sure I trust them. One BIOS gives me a choice of three or four different geometries for each drive, some of which are suspect because they specify more than 63 sectors per track. Keep in mind that your BIOS may support EDD services but your bootstrap program might not use them. An old hack for determining BIOS disk geometry is to clear the disk MBR (zero the first sector), boot DOS, create a new partition table with a moderately sized DOS partition using the DOS FDISK program, and then use the FreeBSD fdisk program to examine the result. Each partition in the MBR partition table is described both by beginning and ending physical disk addresses and by a 32 bit starting block number (zero origin) and a 32 bit size in blocks. The DOS partition should begin after the first track. Its starting block number should be the number of sectors per track. From that and the partition size and the physical address of the last block in the partition, you can compute the number of heads. You might try booting a GRUB floppy and use the "geometry" command to display the disk geometry, but I am not sure where GRUB gets its information. When I recently used the FreeBSD 5.1 /stand/sysinstall program on a 120GB serial ATA disk drive, the program program first said that the drive had 16 heads and 255 sectors per track and some ridiculous number of cylinders. Then the program said that this geometry was incorrect and that it was going to use 255 heads and 63 sectors per track. Then it strongly advised me to tell it the actual geometry used by the BIOS. I doubt it got the initial geometry from the BIOS (which ought to know better than to use more than 63 sectors per track). Perhaps it got the geometry from an ATA disk controller function. This seems more likely and it explains the geometry. I would expect the BIOS to use 255 heads and 63 sectors per track. This is what the GRUB geometry command reports for the drive. So I let /stand/sysinstall use that geometry. Since I don't boot off that drive and I don't access it using any operating system that uses BIOS disk I/O, it won't make any difference if the physical disk addresses are wrong. I am pretty sure that FreeBSD uses the partition starting block numbers and sizes in the partition table instead of the physical C/H/S disk addresses.

It's EN9230-32 (32-bit Gigabit Ethernet card). RealTek is likely to phase out this NIC shortly too. I have only found one commercial source of 8139C+ NICs, which is Alloy Computer Products in Australia: http://www.alloy.com.au/products/1439e.htm The sample NIC I have was sent to me by RealTek some months ago. I'm actually very annoyed with RealTek, board makers, and consumers for the almost non-existent availability of the 8139C+ on the retail market. According to RealTek, they tried to get board makers to buy it, but it costs $1 more than the older 8139 chips, so the board makers always go with the cheaper chip. The result is that the 8139C+ never really made it into the retail market, and hardly anyone even knows it exists. If it was me, I would much rather spend $1 more and get an 8139C+ NIC than an older 8139 NIC: the performance/feature benefit is more than worth it. It irritates me no end that RealTek finally came up with a 10/100 chip that makes up for all shortcomings of the 8139, and you can't buy it anyway. :< The existing 8169 gigE cards available now are based on a two chip design that uses RealTek's 8169 MAC and a Marvell 88E1000 PHY. I bought mine from www.mrtechus.com. You probably won't see these around for too much longer either, because RealTek has deprecated the 8169 chip in favor of the 8169S and 8110S single-chip MAC+PHY devices. According to my contacts at RealTek, the expectation is to have NICs with these chips selling retail for something in the neighborhood of $15. (The currently available 8169+88E1000 boards sell for $27.50.) I'm not sure if they're talking about U.S. or asian markets. We'll have to wait and see. The 8169, 8169S and 8110S all use the same programming API as the 8139C+, and all of them are better than the older 8139. I just received some sample 8169S cards this week and have started working on them. For the moment, they seem to work ok in 10/100 mode, but I'm still having trouble getting the PHY initialized properly so that it will establish a gigE link. I'm hoping to have this worked out soon. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (510) 749-2329 | Senior Engineer, Master of Unix-Fu wpaul@windriver.com | Wind River Systems ============================================================================= "If stupidity were a handicap, you'd have the best parking spot." ============================================================================= From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 10 13:38:17 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 18AA616A4BF for ; Wed, 10 Sep 2003 13:38:17 -0700 (PDT) Received: from corp.xe.com (ws-gw.tor.xe.net [216.220.37.73]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 32A9A43FD7 for ; Wed, 10 Sep 2003 13:38:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bfarmer@xe.com) Received: from [192.168.1.100] ([192.168.1.100]) by corp.xe.com (8.12.8/8.12.3) with ESMTP id h8AKcEjB020857 for ; Wed, 10 Sep 2003 16:38:15 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from bfarmer@xe.com) Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2003 16:38:18 -0400 From: Beric Farmer To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Message-ID: <111159796.1063211898@[192.168.1.100]> X-Mailer: Mulberry/3.0.3 (Win32) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline X-Scanned-By: CanIt (www . canit . ca) Subject: Certance DAT 40 Internal tape drive X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2003 20:38:17 -0000 Hello all.

However, whenever I attempt to write to the drive, using either "dump", "tar" or "dd", the command fails indicating that only about 60 or 70 bytes were written, and the following message shows up in /var/log/messages: Sep 10 15:26:47 xenon /kernel: (sa0:sym0:0:6:0): Invalid request. Fixed block device requests must be a multiple of 1024 bytes The drive has "operating system" dip switches that are to be set differently for different operating systems, but FreeBSD is not one of the supported operating systems. The switches are currently in their default configuration, which, according to the drive's documentation, corresponds to several different operating systems, including Linux. I don't know if this is relevant to the problem or not. Has anyone managed to get one of these drives working properly? Any ideas? Thanks for any input.

I know that many Palm OS 4 devices over a serial connection work but last I heard there were some USB connection problems with the OS 4 devices and I haven't heard anything at all about OS 5. So if anyone has a success story (i.e. they have actually done this themselves) then please let me know. Thanks.

My problem is none of these vendors will guarantee that FreeBSD will be compatible with their systems and they are not prepared to give me a demo machine to test. So I am basically relying on hopefully some good solid advice on a system that will work "out of the box" with FreeBSD. I'm going to be using this as a mail server and proxy serving approximately 1000+ people so specs needn't be too great. If anyone could give me some good leads on this issue I'd be grateful. I mentioned IBM because we already have a good relationship with them as we have a couple of RS6000's running Informix. If someone uses any of their new i386 systems with FreeBSD I'd like to hear from you. Thanks for your input.

Well, I had some Compaq DL360 generation 1 and 2 running here with FreeBSD 4.8, no big hassle, except that you got no OS tools for the RAID (ciss(4)) to look on the shell for the status of the raid, but the BIOS Setup tool for the raid is fairly ok and works. gen3 are reported to have some issues with ACPI, therefore FreeBSD is somewhat ... urks... but should make progress. I also liked supermicro barebones, work perfectly well, also being used in customer projects with customers paying more than 10.000 EUR/month...

This is an older 8-way server (2GB ram, 8x500 Mhz CPUs). I don't really need all those CPUs, but I have nothing else to do with them. :) Everything works fine, except that when I add a Intel Pro/1000 card, it is not seen. I also tried an equivalent compaq gigabit card with the same results (I believe they share the same chipset). I don't know what else to do to it, the bios sees them, I have the latest updates from Compaq/HP, and I eventually recompiled the kernel with the latest drivers from the intel website. Everything else seems to work fine, although admittedly this is the only "up" card that I have in this box. I also tried various slots (the box has three busses) and no luck. The same card is seen on a newer DL380/G2. On the 8500, pciconf does not see this card at all.. The card is correctly installed, has link light, etc. From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Sep 12 20:56:54 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6834F16A4BF for ; Fri, 12 Sep 2003 20:56:54 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ms-smtp-03.southeast.rr.com (ms-smtp-03.southeast.rr.com [24.93.67.84]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 988D843FD7 for ; Fri, 12 Sep 2003 20:56:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jason@ec.rr.com) Received: from ec.rr.com (cpe-024-211-231-149.ec.rr.com [24.211.231.149]) h8D3sg4R009159 for ; Fri, 12 Sep 2003 23:54:42 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <3F6293B3.6070609@ec.rr.com> Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2003 23:49:07 -0400 From: jason User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030713 X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: nforce 2 drivers aren't working X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2003 03:56:54 -0000 Has anyone with a nforce2 board got the agp working?

The default X coming with FreeBSD 4.8 or later works on both cases. It also works for NFORCE4 AGP where I am typing right now. Are you using Intel 865 or 875 chipset-based motherboard?

So if /dev/agpgart doesn't exist, then AGP isn't loaded or attaching to your device. Send me the output of a verbose boot. -- | Matthew N.

The /dev/agpgart entry was gone because I didn't load it, I don't normally load it because the system freezes when I type startx. I changed /boot/loader.conf and rebooted, sure enough /dev/agpgart was there, but I had only a cml. I then checked my kernel conf and found device vga is in there. I also saw when device agp and radeondrm are committed out. I think I remember reading x loads the drm modules so radeondrm is not needed in the kernel. I will load both and see how that goes. By the way I check /boot/loader.conf and agp_load was not there for the second dmesg, but it still shows it as being loaded.
