Here if what I have in lspci result. The forst controller is my DVD
drive and the second my hard disk.
lspci -knn: 00:1f.1 IDE interface [0101]: Intel Corporation
82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller [8086:266f] (rev 03)
lspci -knn: Kernel driver in use: ata_piix
lspci -knn: 00:1f.2 IDE interface [0101]: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M)
SATA Controller [8086:2653] (rev 03)
lspci -knn: Kernel driver in use: ahci
However, in Windows device manager I have for the CD (which I understand
to be PATA): Intel (R)82801FB/FBM Ultra ATA storage Controllers- 266F.
And for my hard-drive: Intel (R)82801FBM Ultra ATA storage Controllers-
2653, that is to say FB/ after 82801 has disappeared. However, Windows
doesn't see it as Sata, right ? and the drivers used are atapi.sys,
pciide.sys, pciidex.sys, and the driver is not from Microsoft but from
Intel. So it may just be kind of hiding to windows the true nature of
the device to make it work (I guess the driver was not included in
Windows XP).
Here is all I know about my problem, but I do confess all the forums and
specifications I read about what is Pata - Sata was always confusing or
contradicting...
So is my disk a Pata or Sata ? it should be Sata since it is recognized
via Ahci and named /dev/sda; and anyway, if everything is fine after
bootstrapping Jaunty AND DISABLING THE WRITE CACHE (hdparm -W0
/dev/sda), is this a bug or is my computer just a special "old" (3
years) model ?
Thanks in advance for any explanation because I've been searching for 2
months ....
Bye
