18.1 Legacy Series / Re: AHCI Timeout on 18.1 but 17.7 installs fine

I have a different motherboard from OP, mine is a Gigabyte GA-J3455N-D3H (rev. 1.0) but I'm guessing the chipset might be the same.

What's your sata configuration in BIOS and also as I understand your board has two controllers... Have you tried using SATA_2 or SATA_3 on your board instead?

Think it's the same... Not too sure though... I didn't have any ahci problems on 2.4.2...but it's definitely worth trying to get Opnsense running

Did u do a clean reinstall or an upgrade? Whats your hardware?

and at which point exactly does it fail?

My instructions above are for after the upgrade from 17.7 to 18.1

I did see this on a FreeBSD forum, but I'm not sure it's entirely related:

Thanks for the hint, managed to get it fixed now:

For first booting:

1. On OPNsense boot screen select "exit to loader prompt" (i think it's option 3)

2. type:

set hint.hpet.0.clock=0

to address the HPET issue (if u have it)

3. type:

set hint.ahcich.0.sata_rev=2 (depending on which channel your harddrive is using replace the '0' with 1 or 2 or 3 etc.)

4. type:

boot

it should boot up fine now

5. add the settings to /boot/loader.conf.local:

- log in after boot, choose option "8 ) Shell"
- type:
edit /boot/loader.conf.local
- in the file add the following two lines (again, see above, only add the hpet line if u have the issue and choose the right channel number for your harddrive):
hint.hpet.0.clock=0
hint.ahcich.0.sata_rev=2
- save the file on exit and reboot
- done

u can fix the HPET issue by using:

set hint.hpet.0.clock=0

on loader prompt (problem has been round pfsense for a while now, too), but then you are still stuck with the ahci timeout.
Hope this is fixed soon - have the same issue with my ASRock board
