 GENERIC. After installing OS on the computer, during the installation=20
 of
 programs from sources this message appeares (installation mc from=20
 ports,
 for example):
 
 
 
 Dear Ilya Storozhilov,
 
 thank you for submitting the PR.
 
 Unfortunately, in the hardware description above, you have not
 specified your chipset.
 
 AFAIR, similar problems have been reported for the last few weeks;
 which problems were caused by **some** VIA chipsets. Could you please
 provide as much information as possible in this respect ?
 
 
 
 A possible/probable explanation of your error message lies in the
 malfunction of your chipset in UDMA mode.
 
 Possible workaround (until the bug is fixed): please disable UDMA mode
 in your HD(s) and revert to PIO mode. In this connection, you may wish
 to have a look at sysctl(8), sysctl.conf(5), and at your hw.atamodes
 variable (sysctl -a | grep atamodes). Set "hw.atamodes" to pio mode,
 ie substitute "pio" for "dma" in your hw.atamodes (sysctl -w
 hw.atamodes=3Dpio,pio,pio,pio).

 My humblest apologies for any inconvenience. I should have taken one=20
 more cup of coffe.
 
 Best regards,
