I have an Abit KT7-RAID mobo which sports an HPT370 ATA-100 IDE controller. When I configure support for the 370 into a 2.4.0-test12 kernel, the resulting kernel will hang at boot time. The ide2 and ide3 channels are detected, but when the kernel gets to the part where it usually displays info on the disks attached to those channels, it locks hard with the only sign of life being a constantly illuminated HDD LED. 2.2.18 + ide.2.2.18.1209.patch works fine, however. 2.2 boots fine and the attached disks are perfectly usable. Hardware RAID (rather, Highpoint's approximation of it) is not configured in the BIOS of the 370. Looking through linux-kernel archives, I noticed that someone ran into this last month sometime. I didn't see a reply so this is my 'me too' post. If more info or testing is needed, lemme know. /ryan/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
