#1736: intel combined mode got removed in linux-2.6.22 --------------------------------------------+------------------------------- Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 6.3 Component: CD | Version: SVN Keywords: | --------------------------------------------+------------------------------- The LiveCD attempts to load both "piix" and "ata_piix" modules when an Intel IDE or SATA controller is detected. Previously, IDE ports were handled by the "piix" module, and SATA by "ata_piix". However, it looks like this ability is deliberately broken in linux-2.6.22. See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/20/171 for the error message.
If this is true, we will have to either document the need for the "pata" boot parameter in such setup, or drop piix completely and force (IMHO, a bit raw) libata on Intel hardware. I cannot test this personally because I have no computer with both IDE and SATA drives on Intel controller. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/ticket/1736> LiveCD Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/livecd/> Linux From Scratch LiveCD -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
