>Description:
I've got a machine with NForce pseudoraid controller, with two disks configured as RAID0.
One of these disks is broken (physically).  'kldload ataraid' fails with (retyped by hand):

ar0: 476950MB <nVidia MediaShield RAID0 (stripe 64KB)> status: READY
ar0: disk0 READY using ad4 as ata2-master
ar0: disk1 READY using ad6 as ata2-master
ad4: FAILURE - READ_DMA status=51<READY, ???_ERROR> error=1<ILLEGAL_LENGTH>
ar0: FAILURE - RAID0 array broken
ar0: writing of nVidia MediaShield metadata is NOT supported yet

^T shows:

load: 0.00 cmd: kldload 249 [g_waitidle] 0.00u 0% 544k

It hangs here.  When ataraid is compiled into the kernel - like in GENERIC - it makes booting
impossible.
