Hi, I am trying to install 6.0-RC1 on a system with a Promise SX4060 (PDC20621) + 4 Maxtor ATA-133 drives (6E040L0). The mobo is a Tyan Thunder LE (S2510).

The card appears to be detected ok (tho the exact text rushes past before I can read it completely), but the drive probing fails completely:

ad4 : FAILURE - SET FEATURES TRANSFER MODE timed out.
ad4 : FAILURE - SET FEATURES RCACHE timed out.
ad4 : FAILURE - SET FEATURES WCACHE timed out.
ad4 : FAILURE - SET FEATURES SET_MULTI.
ad4 : FAILURE - READ timed out (LBA = 80293185)
ad4 : FAILURE - READ retrying (0 retries left) LBA = 0
..
ad4 : req = 0xc3b78960 SET FEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE semaphore timeout !!DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!
..
..
(hand copied as I don't have a serial console)



Some more info - running the PCI bus at 33Mhz (default is 66Mhz) makes no difference.

By way of a further hardware check, tried out a 3Ware 7506 (destined for another machine), and it works perfectly (hmmm - maybe should have bought two of those...).

So ... err.. keep those suggestions coming (should I post this to -current instead???)

Cheers

Mark
