I have read that others had this problem before. I

When I installed FreeBSD 5.3 R, I get some errors
like this, but I could end the install:
ad0: WARNING -READ_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying
request) LBA=5313599
ad0: FAILURE -READ_DMA status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR>
error=84 >ICRC,ABORTED>
spec_getpages:(ad0s1a) I/O read failure: (error=5)
................
I have solved the problem disabling DMA:
hw.ata.ata_dma="0"
(I previously tried disabling ACPI with no success,
and playing with BIOS LBA, LARGE, NORMAL settings
at the BIOS with no success).
Now ad0: works in PIO4 mode and everything is fine,
previously , it was UDMA33. Now there are no errors.
There's you and me now. I have this problem with two
of my PCs. I don't know yet of anybody else who has
these problems.
It's indeed a serious problem, but too few people
running 5.3 seem to suffer from this.
No, it's a known problem and I filed a pr about it a while back. So far
as I know, there's been no action on the pr and disabling dma is the
only workaround.
Have you tried with 4.11?
I bet that would not generate these problems.
Agreed.
