Hello!

Has anyone gotten 4.9R to recognize the "ServerWorks CSB6" ATA
controller on a Dell 600SC? How about installing 5.2R on a 600SC? 5.2R
recognizes the said controller, but it corrupts data.

There is a PR out for the 600sc:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=54549

There is a temp. work around for this issue. However
going into /stand/sysinstall has a tendency to panic
the system on my system.

We are using Dell 600SC with ServerWorks CSB6 for FreeBSD

The machine has 2 IDE disk which are connected to different channel
for ataraid of FreeBSD.

We could not install both 4.9R and 5.1R-p11 when first try, but we
found that we could install without CD-ROM drive :-).

Sure, but 4.9R couldn't recognize the ServerWorks ATA controller and
without /boot/loader.conf.local saying:

hw.ata.ata_dma=0

it would corrupt data when copying stuff from one HD to another.

Thanks for the info! I got pretty much the same dmesg when I put 5.2R
on the machine. And yes, I had to get rid of the CD-ROM drive before it
would install :)

Anyway, I don't have raid and the 2 IDE drives are on ata0-master and
ata0-slave. Data get corrupted when I tried compiling a kernel. I'll
try moving the 2nd IDE to ata1-master and see what happens.

I was wondering if there is any way to misrepresent the hardware address
of a given card for the purpose of not having to call my ISP every time
I connect a different BSD box to my cable modem.
Any help is appreciated.

ifconfig <interface> ether <mac address>

should work with many, though not all ethernet cards.
