Hi, "edx: device timeout" messages normally point to a hardware - software interrupt mismatch. Make sure that your hardware is where your software expect it, or tell your software where your hardware is. GENERIC FreeBSD kernels expect ed0 at io addr 0x280, irq 5 and mem 0xd800. If you want to use ed1 it should be at io addr 0x300, irq 5 and mem 0xd800. If you would rather change FreeBSD, you can type '-c' at the boot prompt and set it to what your hardware is.
