Hi folks,

I am having problems again with the ata drivers on my old Pentium 66
system.

With a kernel built from sources cvsupped today, I get he following
messages when booting:

...
pcib0: <Host to PCI bridge> on motherboard
pci0: <PCI bus> on pcib0
atapci0: <RZ 100? ATA controller !WARNING! buggy chip data loss
possible> port 0
x3f4-0x3f7,0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 1.0 on pci0
atapci0: Busmastering DMA not supported
panic: resource_list_alloc: resource entry is busy

I had problems with this old system and the ata drivers before. The EIDE
hardware apparently reported its IRQ as 0, which normally is reserved
for the timer interrupt. Until recently, the ata driver contained code
to force the IRQ back to 14 or 15 when it encountered such hardware. I
do not see that code in the newest driver. Indeed, when I revert to the
ata driver of last Sunday, the system boots and runs perfectly again.

Is anybody having the same problem ?
Any idea for a solution ?


Kind regards,

Hans
