FreeBSD Serial ATA hard drives support

2005-07-10 Thread DMVN
I ask this question via e-mail just because I hadn't found such
information in the HandBook.

Q: Does the FreeBSD 5.4 support SerialATA hard drives?
I tried to install previous version (5.3) on the machine
with 160GB Seagate Barracuda (8mb cache) drive (ST3160023AS).
It said something like no hard drive found.

Where is the problem? As far as I know, Seagate don't provide
drivers for *nix systems. What I should do?

What controller do you have? I've got Intel ICH6 here onboard.

I installed 5.3 or 5.4 (RC?) at the end of last year on a via amd64 
chipset using SATA150 for both the hardrive and cdrom.

Did it find a controller?

No reason for Seagate to provide drivers as hard drives are mostly  
generic. What you need is for FreeBSD to see your controller before  
it can see your drives.


I've had a pair of Hitachi SATA drives since sometime around 5.1.
