The IT8212 driver depends on other -ac IDE changes. There was an earlier
version that didn't but that has some other bugs and since Bartlomiej
rejected it I've no interest in maintaining that version.

I'm afraid you'll need the -ac patches to use the IT8212. That isn't how
I wanted it either. Once 2.6.10 is out I'll maybe do a 2.6.10-ac. Right
now however both the released 10rc trees crashed or hung on boot on my
test boxes and I've not got the time to mess with random -bk snapshots.

hi, 

thanks for your response Alan,

what i did now is i patched a 2.6.9 version to -ac.

IT8212 is working properly and has found my attached harddisk.

unfortunately i got the next problem :)

my s-ata drives connected to the Intel 925X (ICH6R) are not detected correctly with 2.6.9

solution for now - backup data on IT8212 drive - reboot 2.6.10-rc2 and wait for your proper
patch when 2.6.10 is released. 

another question 
my Asus P5AD2 Premium has got 2 OnBoard Marvell Gigabit chipsets. 
I got a driver package from syskonnect directly - which is working also with 2.6.9/10-rcX.
sysconnect told me that they sended the drivers/patch to the kernel-ml.
does somebody know when it will be merged to the repository?

regards
marcel
