Operating Systems BSD Open (and Free) BSD with Jmicron 20339 USB <-> SATA II chipset Post 302239832 by noratx on Wednesday 24th of September 2008 01:23:02 PM

with "more, but not enough", i mean this:
On FreeBSD the dive is recognized by the system, as Dmesg shows something like this:
Code:
umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0 "JMicron USB to ATA/ATAPI Bridge" rev 2.00/1.00 addr 3
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
scsibus1 at umass0: 2 targets
sd0 at scsibus1 targ 1 lun 0: <ST325041, 0AS, > SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd0: 238475MB, 30401 cyl, 255 head, 63 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 488397168 sec total

(The above dmesg is actually from my newly installed OpenBSD, but its very similar (if not even exactly the same)
and usbdevs shows:
Code:
[root@germany /home/noratx]# usbdevs
addr 1: OHCI root hub, (0x108e)
 addr 2: Dell USB Keyboard, Dell
 addr 3: USB to ATA/ATAPI Bridge, JMicron

But it stops there, the only device I get in FreeBSD under /dev is "sd0", nothing more.

In OpenBSD, I can actually use disklabel and create a new partition, BUT, when i want to mount it, this is what I get:

Code:
# disklabel sd0
# /dev/rsd0c:
type: SCSI
disk: SCSI disk
label: 0AS
flags: vendor
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 63
tracks/cylinder: 255
sectors/cylinder: 16065
cylinders: 30401
total sectors: 488397168
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0           # microseconds
track-to-track seek: 0  # microseconds
drivedata: 0

16 partitions:
#                size           offset  fstype [fsize bsize  cpg]
  a:        488392065                0  4.2BSD   2048 16384    1
  c:        488397168                0  unused      0     0
# mount /dev/sd0a /share/250GB-1/
mount_ffs: /dev/sd0a on /share/250GB-1: Invalid argument

So, drive recognized, I'm able to partition (obviously), but not able to mount the disk.
Allthough, maybe this is just something I have missed, but I don't know what that could be.

Edit:
YES! I was stupid and missed one vital thing...
After using disklabel, I maybe should have used newfs.. Smilie (Here I miss a smiley with a big hand comming and smacking the forhead)... BAH!
Well, after waiting forever for OpenBSD to run newfs on my 250 GB disk, it now works.. just the way it should.
I just wish that it fould work under FreeBSD (7.0) as well, But OpenBSD is anyway better than Linux (IMHO).
Now I'm finally happy again! Thank you, and sorry for beeing a bit stupid. Smilie

EHCI(4)                                                    BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual                                                    EHCI(4)

NAME

     ehci -- USB Enhanced Host Controller driver

SYNOPSIS

     device ehci

DESCRIPTION

     The ehci driver provides support for the USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface, which is used by USB 2.0 controllers.

     EHCI controllers are peculiar in that they can only handle the USB 2.0 protocol.  This means that they normally have one or more companion
     controllers (i.e., ohci(4) or uhci(4)) handling USB 1.x devices.  Consequently each USB connector is electrically connected to two USB con-
     trollers.  The handling of this is totally automatic, but can be noticed since USB 1.x and USB 2.0 devices plugged in to the same connector
     appear to connect to different USB busses.

SEE ALSO

     ohci(4), uhci(4), usb(4)

HISTORY

     The ehci device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.1.

BUGS

     The driver is not finished and is quite buggy.

     There is currently no support for isochronous transfers.

BSD                                                               March 20, 2005                                                               BSD
