This happened to me, too. Even if you setup a master device on the same cable with the "pseudotroubled" one it won't work. I don't know why, but on my kernel from which I removed all SCSI support it then worked. For you, with a CDRW... if you remove SCSI support (including ATAPICAM) the cdrdao will not work any more...Jim Chapman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:
I have 2 devices that will not work as slaves. They are a CD-RW drive and an IDE tape drive. They both work fine as masters. They give a message
ATA identify retries exceeded
during the boot.
I have tried different combinations of masters and slaves and different cables. The bios recognizes them as slaves.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
If you set something up as a slave, make sure that there is a master on that bus. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
It seems a FreeBSD's problem with using removable ATAPI devices. The floppy controller behaves strangely with ACPI activated, for example... This is a minus for the FreeBSD, a very stable and secure system...
