Hi I'm having trouble with Debian Etch amd64 and a pci ata raid controller. I've seen before that when adding a pci controller the hd device order can shift. The pci controller get hda to hdd and that also happen with this installation (kernel 2.6.18-4-amd64), no problem there. (The pci controller just function as extra ata port and has no raid setup.) My problem started when I installed the 2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-amd64 kernel. It seems like udev (?) can't decide if the controller is ranged from hda-d or hde-h. So if I boot the system 5 times, 3/2 of the times the pci controller is ranged at hda-e and the rest at hde-h. This only happens with the xen kernel, when I boot on the "2.6.18-4-amd64" kernel the results is stable. I got no experience with udev, if that is what can fix it.
I can only get info from the device attaches to the controller and not from the controller itself.
