Well, many hours and printk's later, hda: 251350AT Maxtor 2.5" Disk Drive (C) 199, 1287MB w/58kB Cache, CHS=2616/16/63 I haven't tried formatting it yet, but I managed to write some raw data on /dev/hda from a Linux program, then read it back in EPPCBug. Looks funny, every other 2bytes are 00's, but perhaps that's expected for doing a blind write() on /dev/hda. m8xx_setup.c doesn't seem to want both IDE and PCMCIA ATA devices to exist at the same time, though. Not sure what to do about that, but first I have to study interrupts and PCI/ISA busses some more (I'm a bit rusty on that subject matter). If I can hack them to both work at the same time for my own purposes, I'll be happy. -Jamie ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
