I immediate started getting console logs like: Oct 10 14:39:26 kanga kernel: ata0: resetting devices .. Oct 10 14:39:26 kanga kernel: done Oct 10 14:39:26 kanga kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry= left) immediately followed by panics. I'd been using a build from 2003-09-19, but rebuilt world from source from 2003-10-10. The problem still persists unless I boot with 'hw.ata.ata_dma=3D"0"' in /boot/loader.conf.local. The IDE bus in question is: atapci0: port 0xd800-0xd80f at device 4= .1 on pci0 I understand that there may be a few bugs left in ATAng, and as a user of =2DCURRENT, I'm OK with that. Is there anything I can do that would probab= ly let me run my system a bit faster than PIO4 will allow and still limit my likelihood of getting bitten by the READ_DMA timeout panics? =2D-=20 Kirk Strauser "94 outdated ports on the box, 94 outdated ports.
