I also am still getting errors with the 8.10 live disk, downloaded today. I get attempt to access beyond end of device when using the pata_it821x in RAID1 mode.

Rob you should try installing it.

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel.

Thanks steven your workaround works like a charm. I joined my dmesg lspci after removing pata_821x and replacing by it812x driver using the update-initramfs command, maybe this can help. I want just to add this, after the first reboot my RAID volume doesn't automount. I need to mount my volume with Storage device manager, it works, but i can't list my volume file while i'm in my user account. I try with sudo command, it works, I can view my volume content. When I want to change permissions, I can't because the volume is read only. Is there a way to make it writable ? ** Attachment added: uname,dmesg lspci -vvnn http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9468529/dmesg-lspci-vvnn.txt -- Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 106931] Re: Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array
Just to follow up on my issue with this. I'm up and running on 7.04, but in order to get this going I had to recompile kernel. As I mentioned above, this is an issue with the switch to the libata interface for older PATA-style drives. It's just not quite there yet stability-wise as evidenced by all the problems people have had with it since it was put into the kernel. in order to get up and running, I compiled all of the libata modules OUT of the kernel, and compiled in the old it821x module. I also had to modify the initrd by adding the it821x module (and deleting the pata_it821x module) and everything is running happy now - I can see all of my drives on my ITE RAID controller. As an aside, I'm surprised the switch was made during the betas at the last minute by the kernel devs to this interface. This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL in the kernel source tree. I've followed some bug reports and it looks like Alan Cox has done quite a bit of work on this problem and several changes were merged into the upcoming 2.6.23 kernel . hopefully 7.10 will run on this kernel or it will be backported. Till that time looks like you'll either have to run Dapper or Edgy, or re- compile your kernel for later distributions. -- Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 106931] Re: Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array
I should probably say I also have the card successfully running under 7.04 using the old it8212 compiled against the kernel headers for the 2.6.20-16 kernel. This is working alongside the libata drivers (my ubuntu installation runs on another drive which is not connected to the raid card) so recompiling the entire kernel to remove libata wasn't needed. I've attached a Makefile and a shell script to compile and install the driver. You should 'modprobe -r pata_it821x' first if it's already loaded. The it821x.c driver source code from the 2.6.20-16 ubuntu kernel is included so you don't need to download the entire kernel source if you don't want to. (If you do, you can apt-get the linux-source package and get the kernel/ide/pci/it821x.c file from it). While this old driver is still working, obviously i'd prefer to be using the newer libata interface once it's working properly. ** Attachment added: old_it821x.tar.bz2 http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8747704/old_it821x.tar.bz2 -- Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 106931] Re: Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array
I should add, that pata_821x will continue to load at boot time and prevent it821x working, so you'll need to remove that module more permanently. Running update-initramfs -u after removing pata_it821x and installing it821x will update the initrd boot image for the current kernel, removing the pata_it821x module from those being loaded at boot time and adding it821x. When I did this, the hda, hdb etc mappings changed because the it821x driver loaded first (the raid array became hda and what had been hda became hdi). Luckily, the new UUIDs mean this doesn't actually break anything. -- Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 106931] Re: Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array
I have the same issue, and just wanted to add to this. It's a showstopper for me on feisty because all of my user data, etc is on an ITE RAID-based card, and the array isn't recognized with Feisty 2.6.20-15. I get the following messages at boot time: [ 36.845127] pata_it821x: controller in smart mode. [ 36.845254] scsi0 : pata_it821x [ 162.916378] scsi1 : pata_it821x followed by some [ 67.978408] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (INIT_DEV_PARAMS failed, err_mask=0x80) [ 99.629759] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (INIT_DEV_PARAMS failed, err_mask=0x80) [ 131.289096] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (INIT_DEV_PARAMS failed, err_mask=0x80) This seems to be some regression (or something simiar) because it worked fine in the last Beta release of Feisty. I think that the it821x module for some reason hasn't been compiled into the -15 version of the kernel, and that's what is wrong the libata interface and the pata_it821x module do NOT like my card for some reason.

I guess I could re-compile the kernel and add the module back as a work-around but hopefully a new kernel version will be released soon that has the it821x module back in. ** Attachment added: Dmesg output http://librarian.launchpad.net/7418200/dmesg -- Unable to detect ITE8212 RAID0 array https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106931 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description doesn't yet have enough information. Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team: 1. Please include the output of the command 'uname -a' in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture. 2. Please run the command 'dmesg dmesg.log' and attach the resulting file 'dmesg.log' to this bug report. 3. Please run the command 'sudo lspci -vvnn lspci-vvnn.log' and attach the resulting file 'lspci-vvnn.log' to this bug report.
