 Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2008 11:05 pm Post subject: ICH9/AHCI/SATA2 plus GSATA(JMicron) onboard Complications... |
 |
|
Hi all, really need help on this one.
My understanding of ata is improving at a great rate at the moment because I am wrangling my new P35 gigabyte Mobo and several Sata2 disks.
I must be missing something fundamental because I can't fathom the following:
1) The mobo describes the port numbers of the orange coloured SATA connectors as 0,1 and 4,5 and the purple GSATA Connectors as 0,1 - so where are 2,3??? Is it something to do with the legacy IDE connector on the mobo being assigned the middle pair of pci addresses?
2) I have the option to put the ICH9 and GSATA connectors into AHCI mode and the ICH9 0,1 pair into Native or Legacy IDE; I have selected all AHCI and 0,1 in Native
3) BIOS sees all the drives:
Intel ICH9
0: 500GB Samsung
1: 500GB Samsung
4: 500GB Samsung
5: Pioneer DVD
JMicron/GSATA
0: 80GB Seagate
1: Pioneer BD
I have this configuration because I can only boot the live CD 2007.0 on the BD Disc with it plugged into the GSATA ports - the system hangs on "Updating DMI Pool" with any attempt to boot from the ICH9 ports.
So far so good anyway; I am able to launch into 2007.0 and yet the second set of ICH9 drives (Samsung 500 and Pioneer Optical) are not found...
In the end I can only see
/dev/sda [samsung 500]
/dev/sdb [samsung 500]
/dev/sdd [seagate 80]
/dev/sr0 [Pioneer BD/LiveCD]
I did a basic search for why I might be missing a second pair of ICH9 disks but am drawing a blank...
Here is some information from my research:

I can see that lspci gives me two pairs of Intel IDE interfaces but maybe only the first pair is being detected/loaded??
I want to be able to use native SATA for all these devices and don't see any reason why I wont be able to since even if the Optical drives are not 3Gb/s the ports support 1.5Gb/s without configuration.
Where do I go from here guys??
TIA Will

| Can you try the latest SystemRescueCD to boot your Gentoo box, because it's Gentoo based and it's a minimal CD with extra tools. |

No problem, and if your box is not properly detecting your device, we will figure it out  |

Well, the systemrescue cd is a revelation. Fantastic tool.
First of all, it is detecting the nVidia 8400GS as the 8500GT but wizard starts X in the optimal mode which is most encouraging!
now to my devices.
I will need some help interpreting some of this but thankfully now I am on the box and on the net I can paste up some details directly.
here is lspci

In stark contrast to the previous lspci I seem to be looking clearly at the Intel 4 Port SATA ICH9 AHCI Interface! That's good.

not sure how these benchmarks look to the experienced eye - good enough for HTPC? The seagate is to be the system disk and the samsungs are thrash/media disks.

bl00dy brilliant!
So... rescue cd has everything basically sorted out!
Now I just need some basic assistance converting the information learned here to the Gentoo 2007.0 install process and I should be a happy camper... Will be definitely worth a write up on this board - the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3.
Can you see anything else I should take into account when building a Gentoo Base System via the handbook? I have built a few Gentoo systems and rolled more than a handful of kernels but I would appreciate some guidance on how to take a known working config such as is detected by the RescueCD and then translate it to an optimal system build in accordance with the Handbook process. ie what modules and drivers will I need to load (and what that are loaded by the RescueCD won't I need) and how to tell?

I was beginning to think I would start tearing hair out...

Will

| You're 'missing' ports on your ICH9 because.. you have an ICH9. The crippled, 'standard' version which only supports four ports. The ICH9R handles six. The missing ports are because they use the same board layout with both versions. |

Thanks for that clarification Monkeh; that is why to get 6 sata on the gigabyte P35 board they add the JMicron (GSATA) ones... Why they do that? Is it just to make a price point difference between the DS3 and DS3R??

The extra controller handles four ports total. Two are SATA, and the other two are the lone PATA channel (the ICH9 does not support PATA). The DS3R is identical except it has an ICH9R (two extra SATA ports and fakeRAID capability). |
