The sata_promise driver does not see the drive attached to the IDE connector. I found a few old posts where people indicated that it was on Jeff Garziks TODO list. kernel version 2.6.9-rc2-mm3 Thanks Jesse Please CC me on replies -- Jesse Stockall <stockall@magma.ca> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

You (or anyone else) is welcome to work on this feature, I can describe to another engineer how to do it. Jeff ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

It has a single struct ata_port_operations pointer. To support PATA and SATA on the same controller, multiple ata_port_operations pointers must be supported. 2) struct ata_host_set uses a single struct ata_port_operations for the entire host controller. Fix those two things, and support for PATA+SATA controllers is possible. Jeff ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
