too quick on the trigger finger. i think i understand correctly that the same drive works fine if the southbridge is in ide mode. in that case, i'm not sure what's going on. the drive is identifying correctly, but read/write commands fail. if we assume that this kernel uses interrupts to identify the drive, then the problem isn't interrupts, it's that the read/write commands are failing. that really does look like drive failure, and i'd be pretty surprised if the drive worked in ide mode. - erik
