Hi list!
I've googled and searched the mailing list archives for this but couldn't find anything useful. I just installed freebsd 5.4 on a dell PE 2850 with RAID5 (PERC). The installation goes fine and as far as I can tell it runs ok, haven't really done anything with yet though so I can be wrong, but when booting I get two messages that concerns me:

ata2-master: FAILURE - SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE status=41<READY,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED> ata2-slave: FAILURE - SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE status=41<READY,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED>

and

Interrupt storm detected on "irq18: uhci2"; throttling interrupt source

When it comes to the ata2-master/slave errors I understand that they happen for quite a few people running later versions of freebsd? I haven't found anything on the net that points directly at my hardware specifics, it seems to happen to a lot of different drives. I'm using 4 seagate harddrives by the way.

If this problem has been adressed on the list before, I apologise, I couldn't find anything about it. I appreciate any pointers and if someone wants me to post dmesg just ask.

Set up two of these servers recently.

We totally ignored the interrupt storm. We couldn't make it go away but it seemed to do no harm.

The ata errors are froeither related to the DRAC virtual devices, or the real CD, if you have one. They seem to confuse atapicam. If you take atapicam out of the kernel the messages will go away. Your hard drives are SCSI and have nothing to do with ata.

Doh!
Didn't even think about the drives being SCSI. My bad. :)
About atapicam, I can't find it in the kernel config, what line should I be looking for?Re:
