[OmniOS-discuss] How to disable ata module / driver at boot

[steve at linuxsuite.org]

      Howdy!

         I have omnios running on Dell R710, and get these warnings for
device ata0. This device is a TEAC DVD ROM.

kern.warning<4>: Nov 11 09:30:05 dfs2 #011timeout: reset target, target=0
lun=0
kern.warning<4>: Nov 11 09:30:05 dfs2 scsi: [ID 107833 kern.warning]
WARNING: /pci at 0,0/pci-ide at 1f,2/ide at 0 (ata0):
kern.warning<4>: Nov 11 09:30:05 dfs2 #011timeout: reset bus, target=0 lun=0
kern.info<6>: Nov 11 09:35:56 dfs2 pci_autoconfig: [ID 595143 kern.info]
NOTICE: add io-range on subtractive ppb[0/1e/0]: 0x3000 ~ 0x3fff

         Then system hangs and needs to be power cycled..

kern.info<6>: Nov 11 09:35:56 dfs2 genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] pseudo0
is /pseudo

          May not be related, but I would like to reboot so that OmniOS
does not
see the device by not loading the driver / module. I do not need the
device after
system install..

         What is the best way to do this?

         thanx - steve
