Some comments for the new Ubuntu 9.04 version: Placing module options in modprobe.d isn't supported any longer so the options has no effect and once again the disk arrays appears broken after updating to 9.0.4. The easiest solution is to add libata.ignore_hpa=0 in your grub configuration.

Apparently it was decided to retain the broken behavior by default in libata since the old ide driver was broken in this way, and thus users upgrading from the old to the new kernel/driver could render their system unbootable. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Won't Fix

This definitely should not be invalid. The kernel should NOT be defeating the host protected area by default, and this is causing issues with several dmraid users since the disk size recorded by the bios does not match the size reported after disabling the HPA. ** Changed in:
