Subject: Promise FastTrak boot freeze on 2.4.12/+ac3
Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2001 19:18:17 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <courier.3BD0CFF2.00002135@softhome.net> (raw)
I'm using a Promise FastTrak 66 controller with a custom slackware 8
bootdisk, and every time I try to boot it freezes after detecting hde, hdg,
ide10 ide2, and ide3 (I have one drive on each port on the controller in
RAID0 and a CD on the main IDE bus). I tried with kernel 2.4.12 and
2.4.12-ac3, enabling both Promise FastTrak options (one for the controller,
one for IDE RAID) and software RAID. I've done searches on google and their
newsgroup archives and haven't found anything describing a solution to this
problem.
I will do my best to provide any additional information that could help if
this is a new problem, but it can be a bit slow since I can only transfer it
by swapping the video cable and using BioLink (TM of RealLife, INC).

Then: I have discovered a truly remarkable proof which this margin is too
small to contain.
Now: Microsoft has released an unremarkable product which your hard drive is
too small to contain.
