Subject:   Difficulty getting UDMA to work on new Abit KT7A-RAID
Message-ID:  <01022321075801.00458@n4cnw.dyndns.org>

Moved a working Maxtor UDMA33 hard drive and cable over to a
new ABit KT7A-RAID motherboard and can't get it to work in UDMA
mode anymore:

Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s3a
ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done
ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done
ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ata0: resetting devices .. done
ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
ad0: trying fallback to PIO mode
ata0: resetting devices .. done 

Drive seems to be detected okay:

ad0: 8047MB <Maxtor 90840D5> [16351/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
ad1: 96MB <IOMEGA ZIP 100> [512/12/32] at ata1-master PIO0
acd0: CDROM <CD-524E> at ata1-slave using PIO3
acd1: CD-RW <Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus 8200> at ata2-master using PIO4   

Though, it doesn't seemed to know this is the 82C686B Southbridge that
supports ATA 100:

atapci0: <VIA 82C686 ATA66 controller> port 0xc000-0xc00f at device 7.1 on 
pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0

and it identifies the Highpoint controller correctly:

atapci1: <HighPoint HPT370 ATA100 controller> port 
0xec00-0xecff,0xe800-0xe803,0xe400-0xe407,0xe000-0xe003,0xdc00-0xdc07 irq 10 
at device 19.0 on pci0
ata2: at 0xdc00 on atapci1
ata3: at 0xe400 on atapci1

This is a recently updated 4.2-stable system:

FreeBSD n4cnw.dyndns.org 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #6: Thu Feb 22 
23:53:02 CST 2001     n4cnw@n4cnw.dyndns.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MERLIN  
i386            

I've tried three different ATA66/100 cables and it doesn't work with any of
them.  It does seem to work just fine in Windows 98.

Anyone else having these problems?

Please reply directly, I'm not on this list...

Thanks,
Mike
