Today when starting the box with i386 RELENG_5 I got the following: ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA LBA=4798015 ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA LBA=146847331 panic: initiate_write_inodeblock_ufs2: already started After a reboot & fsck it works nice! A verbose dmesg (from a good boot) is here: http://www.gneto.com/FreeBSD/i386-dmesg.boot I really don't know what to with this box, maybe put regular ATA or SCSI disks in it? /Martin
