Just upgraded from 5.2.1 p9 to 5.2-current (20040709). While test booting the
new kernel, I received the following error. Unfortunately, I was unable to
save the dmesg. Here is the error copied by hand, please excuse typo's:
ata0-master: FAILURE - ATA_IDENTIFY no interrupt
ata0-master: FAILURE - ATA_IDENTIFY no interrupt
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a
setrootbyname failed
ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
System info -
AMD Athlon 1.33 266MHZ DDR (133MHZ FSB). 1024MB ram DDR PC2100
IDE HD as Master 0, Sony DVD+/- RW as Master 1 (disabled -- see below)
NVIDIA GeForce 3 AGP
Sound Blaster live
VIA 8233 UDMA100 controller
ad0: 152627MB <ST3160023A> [310101/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100
Let me know if there is any additional information needed.
Cursory google search and scan of UPDATING found only two encounters with this
problem, both of which used a DVD RW drive. Thinking this might be the
culprit, I disabled (read unplugged) my Sony DVD+/-RW drive and rebooted to
no avail. I attempted to boot w/ disabled ACPI, but I get the same message.
For now I have failed over to the 5.2.1 kernel which works with the -current
world. I am interested in testing the new KSE and the changes to the boem gc
library. Any suggestions for bootstrapping the -current kernel?
Thanks,
Justin
