What did we do.... First we added two things for the Promise owners. If you have a FastTrak and you wish to use it in normal mode, we have a solution now. Place all the drives in "span" with only one drive per array. This makes each array a single device. This will work; however, you must set the new Promise Option to enable the HOST regardless. Do not set this option with Promise's I2O card! CSB5...erm it is a work in progress but should be fully functional in 24-48 hours. AMD761 is fully functional upto ATA-66, the ATA-100 feature is not complete, but will register so...if you board works great, otherwise issue an hdparm -X68 /dev/hdX to set the HOST into ATA-66 mode. The dreaded timeout is actively being killed. The mystery of hot-swap, well see LANANA thread....since there is a freeze on char-major-10-XXX device points, thus there is a freeeze on this code coming to Linux. :-( I hope to have all of this cleaned up and ready for submission for the pre3/4/5 patch releases.
