I just did a manual upgrade from 8.04.1(*) to 8.10 on my U10. The resulting 8.10 system boots fine and *does* find the IDE controller and the CDROM:
(from dmesg) [...] [ 7.099058] CMD646: IDE controller (0x1095:0x0646 rev 0x03) at PCI slot 0000 :01:03.0 [ 7.099090] CMD646: MultiWord DMA force limited [ 7.099106] CMD646: 100% native mode on irq 14 [ 7.099133] ide0: BM-DMA at 0x1fe02c00020-0x1fe02c00027, BIOS settings: h da:PIO, hdb:PIO [ 7.099214] ide1: BM-DMA at 0x1fe02c00028-0x1fe02c0002f, BIOS settings: h dc:PIO, hdd:PIO [ 7.099311] Probing IDE interface ide0...

[ 8.901289] hdc: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM drive, 128kB Cache [ 8.901316] Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 [...] Like in 8.04.1, lsmod shows the cmd64x module: [...] cmd64x 6912 0 [permanent] sym53c8xx 85096 3 scsi_transport_spi 27840 1 sym53c8xx ide_core 142200 2 ide_cd_mod,cmd64x [...] In my eyes, this proves that it is not the kernel as such that is the problem, but missing modules on the Installation CD-image. The cmd64x module is located in /lib/modules/2.6.25-2-sparc64/kernel/drivers/ide/pci. From what I could see on the installation medium, this whole subdirectory is missing from the installation CD system. (*) Note for other U10 users: The 8.04.1 install was *not* straight forward on my machine - I ended up with two packages (yelp and seahorse) that would not install due to broken dependencies. I had to fix those manually. -- intrepid doesn't detect ide disk and cdrom on Sun Blade 150 (sparc) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296263 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
