Try adding hw.ata.ata_dma=0 to your /boot/loader.conf. I don't know why the bios can do DMA on a CF and freebsd can't, but we've needed to add that at $work for years (going back to freebsd 4.x at least). Of course, you pay a huge performance penalty for running in PIO mode. -- Ian _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
