Is this new hard drive going to be useless with freebsd?
Good day, I currently have this setup at home and its working fine with FreeBSD 4.10. Motherboard: Jetway 830CH Hard Drive: 10 Gb Samsung Video Card: SiS on-board Processor:AMD Athlon 1200 Mhz (this is not an Athlon XP) Memory: 256 mb PC100 SDRAM I bought a new 80 Gb Seagate 7200 rpm Hard Drive and installed it on the primary master my pc. The access mode for my hard drive Primary Master: ST380011A in BIOS which shows these choices is set to Auto: CHS LBA Large Auto I boot into FreeBSD 5.3 cd and proceed with the installation. Some time after choosing the X-User in the installation method, it ended up failing to install some packages(perl and xorg). Still, it says, Congratulations... FreeBSD is now installed... (and I'm really hoping that nothing went wrong with the base system, and thinking to just install perl and xorg later). I removed the cd, and boot the pc. The kernel boots silently until this error message showed up: ad0 Warning_Read_DMA UDMA ICRC error(retrying request) LBA=1518639 ad0: Failure_Read_DMA status=51READY,DSC,ERROR error=84 ICRC, ABORTED LBA=1518639 spec_getpages:(ad0s1a) I/O read failure:(error=5) bp0xc65fe2ec vp0xc16f7d68 size: 32768,resid:32768,a_count:37268, valid: 0x0 nread:0, reqpage:7, pindex:61, pcount:8 vm_fault:pager read error, pid 55(sh) pid 55(sh),uid 0:exited on signal 11 Dec 24 17:28:39 init: /bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, going to single user mode Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: After pressing return key, the same error message appeared. I tried reinstalling it again but this time, I selected LBA access mode in BIOS. I also choose minimal installation. It successfully installed withouth any package extraction or cd read error problem. Again, I removed the cd, rebooted the pc praying that this time I will be able to see some login prompt... then waiting... and waiting... and then.. Grrr!! Waaa! ad0 Warning_Read_DMA UDMA ICRC error(retrying request) LBA=1518639 ad0: Failure_Read_DMA status=51READY,DSC,ERROR error=84 ICRC, ABORTED LBA=1518639 spec_getpages:(ad0s1a) I/O read failure:(error=5) bp0xc65fe2ec vp0xc16f7d68 size: 32768,resid:32768,a_count:37268, valid: 0x0 nread:0, reqpage:7, pindex:61, pcount:8 vm_fault:pager read error, pid 55(sh) pid 55(sh),uid 0:exited on signal 11 Dec 24 17:28:39 init: /bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, going to single user mode Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: Do you know what's causing this problem. I'm thinking maybe my new hard drive is not compatible with my other pc peripherals (because I have 5.3 running on the same hard drive specs in my office workstation but together with a newer board and processor). I haven't tried installing FreeBSD 4.10 on it yet, because I'm really looking forward to using 5.3. I really need some good advice here. I can't afford to upgrade the rest of my pc because its like a chain reaction, once I upgrade the board..., the processor, memory and video card shall have to be upgraded too due to compatibility issues. Any cheeper idea? Thank you very much for any advice. I'm really hoping to be able to use my new hard drive soon. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
