 |
|
When I try to boot with an r9 kernel, it always seems to have trouble with my hard drive. I'm using the same options as I did with the r7 kernel, and it worked fine. It scans all the IDE channels, and finds all the drives, but then it comes up with this:
| Code: | hde: dma_intr : status=0xff {Busy}
hde: DMA disabled
ide2: reset timed out, status=0xff
hde: status timeout : status=0xff {Busy}
hde: Drive not ready for command
ide2: reset timed out, status=0xff
end_request: I/O error, dev 21:0c (hde), sector xxxx |
The last line appears half a dozen times, then it goes into a kernel panic. I've tried turning DMA on and off by default, and it doesn't help. What am I doing wrong? |

Have you checked for any bug reports? You many not be doing anything 'wrong'.

The probleme is known, recompil your kernel with the special flag (see help) in IDE
Soory for the flag ...

Thanks, I'll try that.
Edit: Maybe I'm not looking for the right thing, but I can't find anything that works. The ide help file mentions some parameters you can pass to the kernel for specific chipsets, but the one I have (HPT 372) isn't listed there. I also tried recompiling it with the "Attempt to hack around chipsets that timeout" option enabled, but that didn't help either. |
