The following reply was made to PR amd64/135040; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Ralf Folkerts <ralf.folkerts@gmx.de> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, ralf.folkerts@gmx.de Cc: Subject: Re: amd64/135040: FreeBSD/amd64 does not (always) detect disk on SB600/AliveXFire eSata 2 Date: Fri, 29 May 2009 08:36:17 +0200 Hi, just a follow-up: Running i386 FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE (and, then 7-STABLE) the Board ran fine all night; I had it running three buildworld buildkernel installworld installkernel in a row and then just kept it running this night w/o any Problems. Today I replaced the disk (with an "identical" one, i.e. same Manuf., Type/Model/Series). Booted off the 72-RELEASE amd64 DVD. The Hrd-Disk was detected. Then tried an installation; created partitions and slices 1:1 identical to the schema I used on i386. However, when it had to create the filesystems it aborted with "unable to find device node for /dev/ad4s1b in /dev. The creation of Filesystems will be aborted." I started fixit and under /dev/ there was only ad4 and ad4s1. A disklabel -r /dev/ad4s1 showed that there was no disklabel on ad4s1. I re-started from DVD and tried a second time: Same message, no disklabel on ad4s1.
