My feeling is that you either have a bad cable or the sata controller is having problems, but it could also be the HDD (it *is* plugged in, right?) Here are some things you can try: - replace the cable. Yes, cables go bad frequently and for no obvious reason. So do connectors, but less frequently. - That mobo probably has four SATA ports, try the drive on different ports. - take out your Seagate drive and put the WD on that SATA port. (Use a live cd like FreeSBIE to boot and test the drive configuation.) - try the Seagate as ad6 and the WD as ad4 This is all basic troubleshooting. By changing one piece of the configuation at a time you should be able to identify the problem. SOLVED.. It turns out that the connections tio the drives have to be connected in the preferential order by which the drives are listed in the cmos AND that includes correct choice for each sata bus. get any of them in the wrong sequence and freebsd does not recognize the drive as being present. Thanks for your input.. it really helped me to stick at it!! -- -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers-- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Sata/IDE drive recognition problem
Hi While preparing to move a system from i386 to amd architecture The existing system is dual booting i386 for 5.4 stable and 6.0. My plan is to remove both systems, preserve my data and reinstall 6.1 amd from cd. The motherboard is a FA-K8N51GMF-9 with 3 hard drives installed. 2xSata and 1xIDE. Freebsd 5.4 #df sees /dev/ad4s1a devfs, /dev/ad4s1e /dev/ad4s1f /dev/ad6s1d /dev/ad6s1e linprocfs Freebsd 6.0 #df sees /dev/ad0s1a devfs /dev/ad0s1e /dev/ad01f /dev/ad0s1d /dev/ad4s1a /dev/ad4s1f /dev/ad6s1d devfs The CD installer select drives interface for 6.1 RELEASE amd64 recognizes ad0 and ad4 but not ad6. For installing 6.1 amd I will need the installer to see all physical devices and existing partitions. The Bios CMOS features show IDE Channel 0 Master WDC WD2000JB IDE Channel 0 Slave Lite-on CD-RW IDE Channel 2 Master ST3160827AS IDE Channel 3 Master WDC WD2000JD The Advanced Bios features show First boot device CDROM Second Boot Device Hard Disk Third boot Device Hard Disk The Hard disk boot priority sequence options show: Ch0 Ch2 Ch3 root shutdown -r /var/log/messages shows ad0 WDC WD2000JB at ata0-master UDMA33 acd0 Lite-on at ata0-slave USMA33 ad4 ST3160827AS at ata2-master UDMA33 ad6 WDC WD2000JD at ata3-master UDMA33 How do I get the installer select drives interface to recognize ad6?
