Hi, all

The Bell usb image doesn't boot on some (IMHO) very common machines.
Screenshots available on

you could just try adding the did to /sys/src/9/pc/sdiahci.c:1939 and
recompile a new kernel.
I can, but I suspect that the solution is more complex than just add a did in a table.
maybe it will work, maybe it wont. only the people with the hardware can
test it.
With the hardware it's just easier. I'm not able to patch but I can make tests and send back the results. I raise an issue just to, politely, let the Labs aware about a problem which makes it impossible to use Plan9 on a high percentage of PCs in Italy and perhaps
in Europe.
also, it looks like that chipset might be affected by the intel cougar
point bug.
No known problems about the robustness of the sata ports.
My 3010 is the Small Form Factor model, usually distributed with a pre-installed Win7/Win8, which have only two ports. It is the model largely used for office apps by big (3-400+ boxes each) local companies. And, almost all various brands offer ASUS based PCs which often have similar problems.
