Hi Tony,

On   4 Oct, this message from Tony Mantler echoed through cyberspace:

Been there, done that, for a Promise Ultra66 ;-)

That could have been PCI problems....

Anyway, I'd suggest starting with:

1. Andre Hedrick's ATA patches (but I suppose you knew that), available
   somewhere on kernel.org, users/hedrick. AFAIK, the 2.2 patches
   _don't_ contain support for the U/100, though...

2. Get my PCI patches, available here:

   http://www.cpu.lu/~mlan/linux/dev/pci.html

...and cross fingers ;-)

Good luck

Michel
