Hi,

Try appending each of two kernel parameters at grub prompt to test:

1. all_generic_ide
2. ide=nodma

And report to the list which one work in your case.  Thanks.

Hi,

I have a problem with an 2.5" IDE HDD on Voyage Linux running on a Alix2c2 board. The TinyBIOS on the alix board recognize the HDD with correct geometry and label. It also attaches as a "slave" drive, since my compact flash card is the master, carrying Voyage Linux. The booting starts from the CF card and during the boot of Voage Linux, the following read/write problems occur for the HDD (this is failure parts of dmesg, see below). It also repeats _alot_ of times (retrying). I've tried with two different HDDs, one 4.8GB and one 80GB. Both works fine on a notebook I have without any problems at all.
I've tried with two different 44pins IDE cables.

I hope someone can give me a hint or advice about this issue. Google wasn't giving me any straight answer either.
