X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: Paul Keusemann List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2007 02:35:58 -0000 I've got an IBM Intellistation M Pro (dual 600 Mhz PIII) system that was runnig 5.4 until I upgraded it to 5.4 via make buildworld and now it hangs after doing the ata1 probe. If I boot with -spv the boot process stops with the following on the console: ata1: channel #1 on atapci0 atapci0: Reserved 0x8 bytes for rld 0x18 type 4 at 0x170 atapci0: Reserved 0x1 bytes for rld 0x1c type 4 at 0x376 and then it hangs with no further output or prompts. It will still boot the 5.4 kernel. This system has an onboard aic7895c SCSI controller and is (attempting) to boot from it. The only thing currently on IDE is the CD-ROM which is currently the secondary master. It also has a HighPoint RocketRAID 1520 SATA controller with two drives on it. I've tried removing the CD-ROM. I can't find a way to disable IDE altogether. What should I try next? -- Paul Keusemann pkeusem@visi.com 4266 Joppa Court (952) 894-7805 Savage, MN 55378
