Hi there,

I'm looking for some help on a problem I'm having with a new setup I've
got... I'm running sparc64 6.0 and also have an external USB drive enclosure
with a 250GB IDE drive in it.  The drive is formatted as a BSD partition
(formatting done on another box).

I've got the following in my kernel:

# USB support
device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface
device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface
device usb # USB Bus (required)
device ugen # Generic
device uhid # "Human Interface Devices"
device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da

I.m seeing this in dmesg:


root at sun# dmesg |grep -i umass
umass0: vendor 0x05e3 USB TO IDE, rev 2.00/0.33, addr 2
umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT

I see this in usbdevs output:

My primary hard drives are da0 and da1 (all the how-to's say that daX should
be where I mount.. but /dev only has my two primary drives:

-su-2.05b# ls -la /dev/da*
crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 16 Dec 20 20:11 /dev/da0
crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 18 Dec 20 12:11 /dev/da0a

crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 22 Dec 20 12:11 /dev/da1d

-su-2.05b# dmesg|grep da.:
da0: <FUJITSU MAN3367M SUN36G 1502> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device

I can plug this into my AMD64 running FreeBSD 6, and it comes up with no
problems.

I THINK I'm probably missing something totally dumb... Anyone got any help
for me on this?

Yah.. I know.. get an i386 box with IDE drives.  :) This is a small 1U box,
and fits in my closet well. so I'd like to use it if possible.

Thanks!!!
Aaron
