Hi Jeff,

Don't see a fix for this issue in your tree, although i think someone
else may have already reported this.   Just thought better safe than
sorry and report perhaps again that rc4 can't boot here because the
sata drives can not be found.  Reverting commit 464cf177 fixes the
problem.

As an aside, booting the patch-reverted rc4 does not resolve the other
issue I just reported to the list[1] (sorry for not cc'ing you).

Cheers.
Sean

Can you describe the problem better?  Is it device misdetection on
sata_promise or something else?

Thanks.

Tejun,

The poorly described booting problem I was seeing here was fixed by
your patch: "sata_promise: use TF interface for polling NODATA commands".

Thanks,
Sean
