Hey, I've added ide0=dma and ide1=dma to my kernel boot parameters, and dmesg shows this:
Kernel command line: root=/dev/hda8 ide0=dma ide1=dma ide_setup: ide0=dma ide_setup: ide1=dma [...] ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx SIS5513: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 15 SIS5513: chipset revision 0 SIS5513: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later SiS5513 ide0: BM-DMA at 0xb400-0xb407, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio ide1: BM-DMA at 0xb408-0xb40f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA hda: Maxtor 6Y120P0, ATA DISK drive hdc: MSI CD-RW MS-8348, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdd: JLMS XJ-HD165H, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14 ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 hda: 240121728 sectors (122942 MB) w/7936KiB Cache, CHS=14946/255/63 hdc: ATAPI 48X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache
But then I'm still getting the "DMA is not enabled on your drives" message.
fsck.reiserfs has bugs then :)
Maybe report it to the reiserfs bug tracker, or the gentoo bootscripts people?
