That's because 5.4 is BROKEN. Check the archives. You will see a
lot of us b&t#hing and whining about it. Your original install was
operating the controller in generic mode & using PIO and/or DMA33. ANY,
repeat ANY attempt to use DMA other than that base mode will
cause the errors you are seeing.
I guess I missed that one, as I was specifically looking for ICH6 issues
(hence found the PR, and a lot of chat about ICH6 RAID support) and missed
all the rest :(
Since there is NO support for the current ATA driver(1), the only
recourse we have been given is to try using Soren's Beta ATA MkIII
patches OR jump to a beta release of 6.0. So, I suggest that you try
that.
I can't run 6.0 on it - I might see if there's a way of forcing the system
to pick the generic/DMA33 driver it was using before, or check the patches
out. Failing that, I guess it's back to 5.4-R for me :(
Thanks for the info,
-Karl
