That is very, very weird. If I remembered correctly You told me that for you 2.4.21 is faster than 2.4.22. (~50MB/s vs ~20MB or something like that). You have in _both_ dmesg messages acpi disabled (that means that acpi can't be related with that). What is more strange is that in 2.4.21 your disk is recognized as UDMA33 one, instead of UDMA100. Could you check that your cable is UDMA100 really? -hda: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=9729/255/63, UDMA(33) +hda: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=9729/255/63, UDMA(100) This are the relevant lines. If I remembered rigth, you can't get 50MB/s with UDMA33. hdparm -i output with both kernels should be more interesting. And could you please send me the dmesg output with apci=on (i.e no pci=noacpi neither acpi=off). Thanks, Juan. -- In theory, practice and theory are the same, but in practice they are different -- Larry McVoy
