Hi All, I believe the support for Adaptec's AIC7901 is broken in 6-BETA2. I had a Dell running with this Controller in RELENG_5 and in Current from June 7th. Some detailed information: ahd0_at_pci2:14:0: class=0x010400 card=0x01681028 chip=0x808f9005 rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Adaptec Inc' device = 'AIC-7901 Ultra320 HostRAID Controller' class = mass storage subclass = RAID uname as of my last running 6-CURRENT Kernel: ([mhettwer_at_siteop-8] <~>)$ uname -a FreeBSD siteop-8.mobile.rz 6.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #0: Tue Jun 7 15:30:11 CEST 2005 root_at_siteop-8.mobile.rz:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 The "boot -v" of 6-BETA2 bootonly stops with the following messages (written down by hand, since I had no serial access): (probe20:sbp0:0:5:0): error 22 (probe20:sbp0:0:5:0): Unretryable Error (probe21:sbp0:0:6:0): error 22 (probe21:sbp0:0:7:0): Unretryable Error ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:4. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:8. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:11. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:13. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:2. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:3. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:5. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:6. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:9. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:10. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:12. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:14. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:15. 0 SCBs aborted (probe1:ahd0:0:1:0): Retrying Command (probe0:ahd0:0:0:0): Retrying Command (ahd0:A:0:0): Sending PPR bus_width 1, period 8, offset fe, ppr_options fb (ahd0:A:0:0): Received PPR width 1, period 8, offset 7f, options c3 Filtered to width 1, period 8, offset 7f, options c3 ahd0: target 0 using 16 bit ahd0 target 0 synchronous with period = 0x8, offset = 0x7f(DT IU RTI) I'd really like continue testing FreeBSD 6 on this Dell Machine... but I have no IDE disks to boot from, and besides, FreeBSD was running before with the very same controller on this box ... Is there any more information I could provide ? best regards, MarianReceived on Fri Aug 19 2005 - 06:21:28 UTC
