Yo list/Soren! Has anybody successfully installed FreeBSD on the dual-Opteron TYAN ThunderK8W S2885 ( http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk8w.html ) using the onboard SiI 3114 SATA controller? This mobo is supposedly supported: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=80857 But I have never been able to successfully install FreeBSD({5.3/5.4/6.0Beta3/4} amd64/i386) on it, using SATA. In my last attempt at installing 6.0Beta4 AMD64 on it, I get: ad4: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED> LBA=105819039 g_vfs_done():ad4s1e[WRITE(offset=23695114240, length=2048)]error = 5
The drive apparently aborts the write, however this cant be the first operation to it, so something else might have happend before this. On my (granted UP AMD64) it works like a charm, so does it on x86 so the driver is not completely broken at least :)
Get me the output from dmesg so I can see whats under the hood, might help explain things.
