  Subject: more problems with 5.3 and TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA
 
  I got this annoying problem when upgradeing to 5.3, the miniinst iso
  blurps out TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA when it starts writing base to my
  disk. And when I tried to first install 5.2.1 and upgrade (cvsup, make
  buildworld etc.. ) to 5.3 that way everything seems fine until I
  reboot to single-user-mode, as soon as Im starting to write anything
  to the disk it´s blurping out those errors.. I have diagnosticed my
  disk, checked my cabling and fixed my PSU (installed a brand new one).
  No difference. I noticed that my ide-controller was supported in 4.11,
  but not? in 5.3, is that realy true? seems very strange...
 
  Sence I duel boot with Wintendo/Lunix and don´t see this problem with
  those oses I´m very confused of what to do next..
 
  I´ll tried some snapshots to but no luck...

I (with a little help from a good friend ) figured out an solution to
the problem, in switching my brand new ata133 ide-cable to an old
school ata33 ide-cable FreeBSD sets my drives to UDMA3 and boots up
alright..

key commands here:

atacontrol list
and
atacontrol mode channel number

( my buddy had come across some message telling about how SiS had
created an new SiS 5513 chipset with the same tag.. unfortunal he
didn't remember where that message were. But it would make sense why
FreeBSD tryies  to use UDMA5 on my UDMA3 only atachipset.. )
