ne na 137,4 GB .... Nevyzmozhnost da adresira pove4e ot 2^28 sectiors (137 GB) s LBA-28 kernel code. Trebe LBA-48 support ... ili new ATA standard.... The old ATA standard describes how to address a sector on an IDE disk using 28 bits (8 bits for the sector, 4 for the head, 16 for the cylinder). This means that an IDE disk can have at most 2^28 addressable sectors With 512-byte sectors this is 2^37 bytes, that is, 137.4 GB. The ATA-6 standard includes a specification how to address past this 2^28 sector boundary. The new standard allows addressing of 2^48 sectors. There is support in recent Linux kernels that have incorporated Andre Hedrick's IDE patch, for example 2.4.18-pre7-ac3 and 2.5.3. Maxtor sells 160 GB IDE disks since Fall 2001. An old kernel will treat such disks as 137.4 GB disks. > >imam disk maxtor 160Gb ama se poluchava problem > >izdirvam patch za 2.2.x ako niakoi ima ideia kak da razresha problema > > neka pishe tuka maj ima LBA48 support backported ot 2.4: http://www.ans.pl/ide/ide-backport.txt http://www.ans.pl/ide/testing/ide-backport.txt o backport from linux-2.4.17+ide.2.4.16.12102001.patch: ide-disk.c - ver 1.12: LBA48 addressing code is ready.
