I did the procedure, how did you manage the inclusion at boot stage ? I can insmod them after the booting process and it works quite well (as far as my tests ran), but i think i need to make my own initrd (since i don't know the command -if someone can help-). I remember a Mdk-specifi tool to do this for me, but i don't remeber its name. > The problem is **not** Mandrake specific at all and there is little that > the Mandrake team can do to remedy it at this stage. I saw some patches for HPT372 from Alan Cox, and i was wondering whether they were included in the last kernel. > Solution: write to HPT a polite email asking them to open the source code > for their 372 driver.
