Hi !
We are using JumpTec PCs with IDE Flashdiscs. Other than the
"SeekComplete"-error which we ignore we have made an observation:
Compiling a kernel with the new IDE driver, we realize that we
can't get lilo to write to the boot sector properly. It just
prints out "LI" at boot time and stops.
If we use the "old IDE" driver, it works. Perhaps some kernel
guru can enlighten us where there might be the difference
between those IDE drivers ? Does it relate to the
"SeekComplete"-error ?
Now we have the problem that we have a JumpTec ETX system with
the boot flash disc on hdc (master disc on second IDE).
Since the old IDE driver doesn't recognize the second IDE
controller, we can't get LILO to boot from this disc, it just
says "LI" again (when written with the new driver) :(
Did anyone else make this observation and found a fix ? Right
now we can't see any possibility to get lilo to boot from hdc...
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Walter
