Good news. Mr. Zolnierkiewicz, maintainer of the Linux kernel IDE subsystem got back to me very quickly, and I quote -- "hdx=nodma" should work fine with kernels >= 2.6.24 -- thank you very much!!
I have no experience installing Ubuntu yet. I have some experience with other distributions, but this will be my first install of Ubuntu. I will try the Hardy Heron Alpha 3 on my Sun box and try to verify the fix. -- Sparc64 Gutsy Kernel not recognizing ide=nodma https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159152 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
