OK! There's a comment "check this" in the initialization code of (at line 843
within the current version of pata_hpt37x, V0.6.15), and that made me
suspicious.
But, per your suggestion, I rebuilt initrd with BOTH drivers included -- and I
installed hpt37x first. This worked exactly as as you said it should: hpt37x
was assigned to handle the interrupt, but it bailed out immediately. hpt3x2n
was tried next, and was able to grab the interface.
So please feel free to close this as 'invalid'. There's one TINY nitpick which
I saw in pata_3x2n, but it would be a different bug (if someone wants to
bother): Source code lines 536-537 (in the current version, V0.3.10)are as
follows,
536 printk(KERN_INFO "pata_hpt37x: bus clock %dMHz, using 66MHz
DPLL.\n",
537 pci_mhz);
And you saw this in my clip from dmesg (in the bug description, above). Driver
"pata_3x2n" should not print a message listing itself as "pata_hpt37x"; there's
an old copy/paste mistake in there.
THANKS for hand-holding the newby, you've been awesome.
