Hello.
I am trying to install OBSD 3.8 on my new Tyan S5120 tomcat i915 mobo.
I have a pIV chip and 2gb of ram. It has an ICH6 chipset in it.
Initially I tried it with a 200GB sata drive. Whenever I booted to the
bootcd, however, it always hung at:
rd0: fixed, 3800 blocks
wd0(pciide0:0:0): timeout
type: ata
c_bcount: 512
c_skip: 0
wd0 (pciide0:0:0): timeout
type: ata
cbount: 512
c_skip: 0
So I bought a 250 gb IDE drive. After a strugle, I finally got the
thing in there, and the mobo detects it. So I reboot, and I'll be damned
if I didn't get the same error! I had removed the other drive
completely, so how is it that I get the same error?
So, eventually I bump into an Obsd 3.6 disk, and I figure, "What the
hell". I boot to it, and low and behold the damn thing works!
I have to have 3.8 on here though... I am transferring another system.
Is there anyway to get 3.8 to work on this architecture?
Please help.
Thanks.
Chris
