  > Change the default for hw.ata.atapi_dma so that DMA is off.  We are
  > seeing a lot of install problems that get fixed by turning DMA
  > off.  The sparc64 mailing list sees the most reports of this but it
  > does come up on others.  Changing the default should give us a more
  > robust install, at the expense of people who need DMA for burning
  > CDs needing to turn it on (maybe).

  > The same change will be made in HEAD shortly by the ata maintainer.
