Howdy List?
I have a Promise SATA 300 TX4 which I've tested
with 3 different mobos using 4.3 and 4.4. Two
of the mobos, all of which operate with obsd cleanly
when using on-board disk io, fail to finish booting,
locking tight at the
mtrr: Pentium Pro MTRR support
line when booting the cd and at the
softraid0 at root
line when booting from a SATA disk attached to the TX4.
AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3000+ (1808.33-MHz 686-class CPU)
AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 2600+ ("AuthenticAMD" 686-class, 128KB L2 cache) 1.61
GHz
On an
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 3.02 GHz
board (Gigabyte), however, I have no problems booting and running with
the Promise in, either from CD or from disk attached to the Promise.
Any ideas as to what is happening would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dhu
