Hi all people!
I'm quite happy of my mdk-8.0, so it was a little time I didn't test cooker
on my machine. But 2 days ago I installed the latest kernel in cooker and...
what a surprise: I saw that line during the boot:
VP_IDE: VIA vt82c686a (rev 22) IDE UDMA66 controller on pci00:07.1
ide0: BM-DMA at 0x9000-0x9007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
ide1: BM-DMA at 0x9008-0x900f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA
PDC20265: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 60
PDC20265: chipset revision 2
ide: Found promise 20265 in RAID mode.
It seems that the kernel now recognize the Ata-100-RAID-controller installed
onboard of my dual-cpu MSI-6321. I actually have to put all the HD on
standard IDE controller, and I don't like it... So I decided to test latest
cooker, if it could see that ata/raid controller. Result is NO good, it's
still like kernel 2.4.3, but now the question is: may it depend on the fact
that the files in /images/*.img are too old? Why the kernel does not see
correctly that controller during installation but it can see perfectly after
installation?...
More precisely: when will I be able installing cooker on Promise ata-100/raid
controller? Any plan about it?
There are many people with such problem here, in some mailing list in Italy,
so I think it's a general problem. ;o)
C.
