I'm CC'ing linux-ide... looks like the disk which you say is 20GB is
misdetected by the IDE layer as being 2GB.

Ok, so we have:

Here the drive claims to be 2GB, not 20GB (or is detected as such).

And here you can see that the partition map tries to use about 20GB...
so there is a discrepancy between what the partition map says and what
the IDE driver says. I suspect old kernel just ignores the later, while
newer kernels enforce the limit which causes your problem.

Bart, I'm a bit at lost as to why the device size would be misdetected,
do you have an idea ? Might be worth getting a dump of the ID block...
Mike, can you send us a dump of the binary file /proc/ide/hdb/identify ?

Ben.

is this what you wanted?  I ran cat /prob/ide/hdb/identify while booted

want me to keep linux-ide in the loop, if I am wrong tell me and I will 
no longer keep them in the CC

Since this is a 2.6.17->2.6.18 regression narrowing the problem down to
the specific changeset (or at least -git or even -rc) seems like a most
promising way in discovering the source of the issue.

Dunno... unless I missed something in the logs, both 2.6.17 and .18 seem
to report initially the wrong size (2GB), but the kernel seems to ignore
the size from the IDE layer and use the one in the partition map in .17
and not in .18 ...

To me at least, it looks like it's not a regression per-se but a latent
bug made visible.

Cheers,
Ben.

Oddly enough, the IDENTIFY data that was posted shows this:

        CHS current addressable sectors:    4128768
        LBA    user addressable sectors:   40188960

So, using CHS it appears as a 2GB drive, but using LBA we get a 20GB drive.
Is something mistakenly using CHS instead of LBA ??
