hi,all
Currently I am porting linux 2.4.22 to a 8248 board. It has a PCI IDE
controller. Now the board is bringing up through ramdisk. I can fdisk the disk
and see the partition table. I can mkfs.minix on it, yet I can not use ext2
file system. My first guess is because of ext2 file system so I replace all
ext2 related code from a working linux code. Still not working.
Can it because of PCI memory problem? Does I have to ioremap 0x80000000 PCI
memory range?
# fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 120.0 GB, 120025735168 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 14592 cylinders

/dev/hda1 1 2000 16064968+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 2001 4000 16065000 83 Linux
However when I mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda1, it crashes.

I can use mkfs.minix on the disk.

System is OK and can read/write on it.
What could be the problem?
