My motherboard has a 3112 chip builtin and have come across the same problem - i.e. Solaris won't work with drives connected to it.

The only way this chip will work in Solaris is if you can get it to work in IDE legacy mode (short of writing your own driver, or adapting the driver for the 3124/3132). I did a search on the Silicon Image website and it says that the chip is "register compatible with legacy IDE" - I don't know if this is the same as supporting legacy IDE mode though. The fact that the card is reporting itself as a member of the wrong device class is a show-stopper though, unless you fancy compiling your own OpenSolaris kernel. That would be my reading of it anyway. Cheers Andrew. This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
