Soren,

I am using FreeBSD 6-STABLE and have a problem with the atapicam driver,
I have been in contact with Thomas Quinot through the FreeBSD stable
mailing list (his name was on the code for atapicam), I have sent him
boot -v -h output as suggested, but he is not sure whats wrong - he has
suggested that I contact you as you are responsible for the ATA
sub-system.

Would you be so good as to take a look at the attached forwarded message
please?

Looks like atapicam does some operation that locks/hangs the device(s)
causing endless resets/retry loops..
Does the system boot correctly without atapicam in the kernel and are
the devices accessible through the plain ATA/ATAPI devices ?

Yes the system will boot fine without atapicam in the kernel and all
devices are accessible. I only need atapicam for CD/DVD writting.

Whats the next move, do I take what you have said back to Thomas Quinot?

Attached is my output from "boot -h -v" for my kernel with atapicam
compiled in.

Hope it sheds some light on the problem...

For booting with or without the apaicam module compiled into the Kernel?

With ATAPI/CAM would be more useful.

Thanks,
Thomas.
