 Mr. Schilling says Install a non-defective kernel.  I am assuming that
 this doesn't mean some other OS.

 Googling around on the CDB bytes turns up lots of people with cabling
 problems, especially on SCSI busses.

 Googling around on FreeBSD and 698368 turns up someone who needed the
 P1003_1B option added to a kernel.  (It's now just the _KPOSIX option, and
 it's already in there.)

 I got as far as putting in the atapicam and related devices.  This happens
 whether or not I leave the atapicd driver in place.  (dmesg output below is
 without.)

 I enclose dmesg and config file as attachments for perusal.  I am Very
 Worried by the observation that the CD is claiming a 3.300MB/sec transfer
 rate:

  cd0 at ata0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
  cd0: PIONEER DVD-RW  DVR-108 1.10 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device
  cd0: 3.300MB/s transfers

Hi,

I'm having _exactly_ the same problem... :-( Mine is a Pioneer DVR-107D, 
firmware v1.18 on a 5.2.1-REL-p11.

dmesg :
cd1 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
cd1: PIONEER DVD-RW  DVR-107D 1.18 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device
cd1: 16.000MB/s transfers. 

I got the same reply from mr. Schilling and I haven't found any solution 
yet... Could it be something with the drives/firmware ?

Beni.

What's your motherboard?  Mine's a SuperMicro X5DE8-GG.

And... With FreeBSD 5.3beta7, it works fine.

I found one other reference to problems with the ServerWorks CSB6 chipset
under FreeBSD 5.2.1.

Anyway, upgrading to 5.3beta7 made my problem go away, as well as my
mysterious bus errors.  (And before anyone says bad memory, yes, I know;
I ran memtest for a day, ran burnMMX and burnP6 several times at once for
a day, and the machine has ECC, and has no events in the event log.)

(I can't do any more testing, I'm afraid, as the machine has been shipped
away, now that it's working.)

 What's your motherboard?  Mine's a SuperMicro X5DE8-GG.

Mainboard : Medion MD 8088 (MSI MS-7048)
Chipset : Intel 865PE

And - unfortunately - all works fine under WinXP...

 And... With FreeBSD 5.3beta7, it works fine.

Ok, will wait for the official 5.3 release in the next days then.

I've had no memory problems so far either.

This is almost certainly incorrect; it should be ATA66, and I have an 80-pin
cable.

I'm not *totally* hopeless:
# cat /boot/loader.conf
hw.ata.atapi_dma=1

but I can't tell whether that's fixed anything.

My hypothesis is that I have somehow failed to persuade the kernel to Really
And Truly do DMA on this device, and that it's fallen back on a pathetically
slow and inappropriate PIO mode.

Clues will be gratefully appreciated; also, since I've seen other people with
similar problems, if I can find a fix, I will write about it and put lots of
happy Google-friendly keywords in it so fewer people will ask in the future.

Problem:  CD burning Always Fails.  Failure mode is 100% repeatable and

A followup:  I have an HP DVD Writer dvd630i.

1.  If I install only the DVD Writer dvd630i, as a master, the kernel panics
and won't boot.
2.  If I install both drives, with the HP as slave, the HP comes up at
33MB/sec and the Pioneer at 66MB/sec.

In that configuration, the HP burns CDs just fine, but the Pioneer doesn't.

So I'd just put the HP in the system.  But it won't boot with just the HP!
The last thing it says is ata1-slave: interrupt failed.  This is odd, 'cuz
the drive's set for master, and there is no slave.  ???
