Hi, I'm using the linux 2.6.13 (from www.linux-mips.org) containing the libata patch (2.6.13-rc7-libata1.patch.bz2) on an AMD DBAu1550 (mips32). I've connected a HDD to the pata port of my PDC 20579 controller. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Here a part of the boot messages:
... Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2 ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:0c.0 (0000 -> 0003) sata_promise PATA port found ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC0054200 ctl 0xC0054238 bmdma 0x0 irq 2 ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC0054280 ctl 0xC00542B8 bmdma 0x0 irq 2 ata3: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC0054300 ctl 0xC0054338 bmdma 0x0 irq 2 ata1: no device found (phy stat 00002821) scsi0 : sata_promise ata2: no device found (phy stat 00002821) scsi1 : sata_promise ata3: disabling port scsi2 : sata_promise ... I've try to connect a HDD on a SATA port and the problem still appears :(. More when I try the 2.6.10 kernel with the corresponding libata patch it, works ! Does somebody have such a behaviour ? Please help me ! What can I do to make the kernel2.6.13 works with my promise controller ?
