Søren could this be the same kind of issue I have been seeing with the "load data" error - This machine is a dell as well and
hosts 2 SATA CD drives as well.
FYI - In regards to the "load data error" - I tryed to revert all changes apart from the ata changes to 2008/04/10 in order
to eliminate any potential other error e.g. From the other changes in the kernel and I still get a "load data Error"
I have tested the following
1) Change the File system to UFS2 in order to eliminate ZFS introduced errors - no change
2) Compile the entrie system as to CURRENT but using the ata sources from 2008/04/10 - everything works
3) Compile the entire system as of 2008/04/10 adding the ata changes seperately - load data error (Disk are random - it seems) -
bus_dmamap_load seems to return ENOMEM
4) Tested whether it could be USB that some how corrupted the memory by disabling all external USB - no change
5) Using GENERIC or custom kernel does not change anything
So I am at a loss - I see no errors under Windows or Linux - However the FreeBSD boot code after 2008/04/10 stops
in two different places randomly
a) sometimes it stops just when loading the secondary boot loader
b) sometimes the keyboard locks after typing 4-5 characters when using option 6
All the above errors seems to disapper if I use a full system compiled with the 2008/04/10 date
