I've just installed FreeBSD 4.2 on an old P100.

The install went fine.

But while bootup I get an errormesage.

"ad0: HARD WRITE ERROR blk# 243855 status=51 error=04"

The HDD is ok, no bad blocks or something like that. So what could this be???

Add hw.ata.ata_dma="0" to /boot/kernel.conf then reboot.
