 I thought that this was fixed in a 4.7-PRERELEASE according to the 4.6
 errata?

It depends on which brand cd-rom drive you have as to wether it is 
supported/fixed. I still have the same problem as well, I submitted a bug 
report and was told that for my particular cd-rom drive (sony), I could fix 
the problem by making the cd-rom drive the master (instead of slave) on the 
ide cable. (Which isnt an option to me for this is a work computer which I am 
not allowed to open).

MODE_SENSE_BIG ata problem with 4.7 installation

2002-10-31 Thread Paul English

I'm getting the following error repeated to the screen when the 4.7
install boot reaches ata:

acd0: MODE_SENSE_BIG command timeout - resetting
ata1: resetting devices .. done

I thought that this was fixed in a 4.7-PRERELEASE according to the 4.6
errata?

I tried the fix on the 4.6 errata webpage with no luck.

Thanks,
Paul

 Hi everyone!
 
 I have a rather annoying trouble here.
 
 I can not mount any CD's at all, the machine just hangs.
 Hard reset is the only solution I've found so far.
 As you can see from my dmesg it gives some errors at the end.
 
 I saw somewhere about a bug in the acd driver, but that seems to be when
 you mount a drive and it gives the acd0: MODE_SENSE_BIG command timeout
 - resetting error.
 But this is at boot time already, no CD in the drive.
 This is the only device on that IDE controller.

I'm pretty sure that there is no reliable fix for this on 4.6.2. The
problem was not (hopefully) finally fixed until about a month ago. If
you upgrade to 4.7-Release or -Stable, it SHOULD be better.

Alternatively you might well get by with updating the drivers from
cvs. Be sure to get those from the stable branch, RELENG_4. Get all of
the files there that have been  updated in 2 months or less and odds
are pretty good. But this is always a bit risky as some dependencies
may have changed between 4.6.2 and now. It's probably easier to go to
4.7.
