Hi (Old subject: Problem with Seagate hdd),
I've downloaded 5.4-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso and 5.4-RELEASE-i386-disc2.iso
this weekend and I burned them in CDs but I still have problem with fBSD
installer.
In fact, I not only have tried with a Fujitsu Model: MPD3043AT hdd but
ST340014A (40Gb barracuda7200.7) hdd as well without results.
I think that the problems is in fBSD that it doesn't able to communicate
with IDE banks, it raise the errors:
ata0-master: Failure - ATA-IDENTIFY timed out
ata0-master: Failure - ATA-IDENTIFY timed out
ata0-master: Failure - ATA-IDENTIFY timed out
atapi ... I don't remember the rest....
I've tested the installer in other four PCs and it works well.
if the motherboard's controller isn't supported by fBSD, what could I do,
should I send to garbage the motherboard?
Thanks......
PD: My motherboard
