I'm using this chipset: 00:0b.0 Mass storage controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC40775 (SATA 300 TX2plus) (rev 02) If I plug in a SATAPI drive, the driver hangs during initialization. If I plug in a (PATA) ATAPI drive, I'm told: ata3.01: ATAPI, max MWDMA2 ata3.01: configured for MWDMA2 Vendor: ATA Model: ST3250824NS Rev: 3.AE Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 ata3.01: WARNING: ATAPI is not supported with this driver, device ignored. Is there any way to get this working (I'm using Linux 2.6.18, with linux-2.6-sata-promise-pata-ports.patch from Fedora Core 6) Thanks for any help/pointers -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------
