I was seeing exactly this sort of thing too, after replacing my old Pentium 133 workstation with a newer machine. Then, FreeBSD would freeze and stop responding even to CTRL-ALT-ESC that should bring up the kernel debugger :/ > Hola Manuel, > > Are you using ATA-100 or ATA-133 cables to hook your Maxtor to the SIS > motherboard.

I have 4 machines with SIS-645. I have a Gigabyte Titan 667 Series motherboard on my Celeron @ 1800. The model of the motherboard is GA-8ST667. The dmesg output includes the following: % dmesg | grep -i sis atapci0: port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 2.5 on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 pcm0: port 0xe400-0xe47f,0xe000-0xe0ff irq 10 at device 2.7 on pci0 ohci0: mem 0xef001000-0xef001fff irq 11 at device 3.0 on pci0 usb0: on ohci0 uhub0: SiS OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 ohci1: mem 0xef002000-0xef002fff irq 9 at device 3.1 on pci0 usb1: on ohci1 uhub1: SiS OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 ohci2: mem 0xef003000-0xef003fff irq 7 at device 3.2 on pci0 usb2: on ohci2 uhub2: SiS OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 I could only boot my installed -CURRENT by disabling hw.ata.atapi_dma :/ Try setting hw.ata.ata_dma="0" and hw.ata.atapi_dma="0" at the loader prompt, and see if you can at least boot your system.
