Interestingly, under the kernel that is functioning properly, there is
*NO* /proc/ide !?!?
In fact, grepping for ide in all files under /proc (except,
numeral-named), I find:
/proc/ioports:01f0-01f7 : ide0
/proc/ioports:03f6-03f6 : ide0
/proc/ioports:e800-e807 : IDE DMA
/proc/ioports:e808-e80f : IDE DMA
/proc/interrupts:14: 150 + ide0
/proc/devices: 3 ide0
/proc/ksyms:00180518 ide_register_Reb6aee5d
/proc/ksyms:00180610 ide_unregister_R0c486b72
/proc/ksyms:0019e790 proc_print_scsidevice_Ra4deca21
/proc/scsi/aic7xxx/0: Ultra Wide Controller
/proc/pci: IDE interface: Intel 82371SB PIIX3 IDE (rev 0).
So, how is this handling the IDE hdd? Is it using scsi to interpret
ide?
The new kernel has this /proc/ide/drivers:
ide-disk version 1.08
Also, networking is also behaving badly! I can resolve names from
addresses (ostensibly, via dnscache on the firewall); but, *all* pings
fail completely!
What do you thing?
