Jeff, Please tell me if I understand your set-up correctly. You have a system that is utilitizing both the primary and secondary IDE channels built into the motherboard, and they are using the standard IRQs 14 and 15, I/O addresses 1F0 and 170, respectfully. Your Promise Ultra IDE card has given you another pair of channels, using at least one other IRQ (or two) and two other I/O addesses. Does this sum it up correctly?

Mandrake 8.2 recognises all the devices on the Promise card but none of the devices on the in built IDE controller, i.e. /dev/hda is actually my 'G' drive as far as Windows is concerned but my first drive according to Mandrake. Has anybody come across this? Is there a work round? Regards ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
