Re: Issue with FreeBSD, Compact Flash
These options were already set.

Re: Issue with FreeBSD, Compact Flash
We're trying to run m0n0wall on a Nexcom Nexgate 1045. The card that came with it is a Sandisk card. The card works in other devices (we can extract the full image to it with no problems). I prefer experimenting too, but the boss really wants it up :-( :-( I can try to hunt down some other cards, but please let me know if you have any other suggestions. Am Freitag, 25.

Re: Issue with FreeBSD, Compact Flash
Adding to my response below, I'd like to also say that we have two of these units, and both units have failed (with two different readers, and cards). -Matt We're trying to run m0n0wall on a Nexcom Nexgate 1045.

Okay, I'm not really an ATA expert nor do I know the code, but what I found is that it could be a LBA/CHS problem. Which version do you use? Have you tried to slice/lable the card inside the NSA 1045 (from a temporary FreeBSD holding HD)? If I'm right you dump a preformatted image onto the card, maybe you have addressing problems I gave up using images, PXE-booting (or installing a HD on machines which have the possibillity) and installing the base system right on the destination hardware turned out to be much safer and is not really more time consuming... Mayby playing with BIOS LBA/CHS settings gives some hint's, I don't expect that, but I'd try that and if that all fails you may want to contact Søren, the ATA author. -Harry Am Freitag, 25.
