I swapped out a TX2000 for a TX4000 today, and naively thought that I'd just be able to plug in the new card and reboot. Unfortunately, it does not detect the 4 drives (Maxtor 6E040L0).

Booting off the 6.0R install cd shows the card detected ok, and 6 ATA channels - 2 on-board + 4 on-card. Running 'atacontrol list' from a fixit shell lists the 4 channels with no drives attached.

Is there anything special that needed for the TX4000, compared to the TX2000?


A slight update on this, I tried out a gentoo installation - it sees the drives as scsi, whereas it saw the same ones as ata when attached to a TX2000 - so I'm wondering if these newer TX4000's have had a firmware change (as I *know* there are folks one this list that run the 4's....)

Cheers
