Abit BP-6 has both the native intel 440BX/PIIX4 chipset and HPT366
integrated. ide0 & 1 = U/33, ide 2 & 3 = U/66. Yes, that's 8 EIDE
devices. Note that the HPT366 will take the highest available
interrupt. Sharable with the usual cautions.
Unanswered questions:
1. Why does hdparm show drive as PIO=2/DMA=2?
2. Does this setup == file corruption waiting to happen?
3. Does the 17MB/s hdparm v3.5 number seem correct?
Basic procedure:
CAUTION: disk corruption risks unknown.
1. Install with IDE set as primary master on /dev/hda (ide0).
2. Upgrade to 2.2.13 selecting U/66 particulars (config file block
devices segment attached).
3. Apply ide patch
(ftp.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/). Recompile kernel.
4. Change all /dev/hda* references to /dev/hdc* in /etc/lilo.conf and
/etc/fstab. Rerun /sbin/lilo. LILO was installed with the partition
option rather than MBR.
5. Power down.
6. Move disk to ide3/master, 80pin cable, reboot (dmesg output
attached).
